Actually, you said "What I learned from not only this but just flying Experimental airplanes. Do not treat one as a certified airplane. If you do it can and will bite you," and later, "In an experimental I would never leave runway behind me, were in a Certified CA style airplane I may do a mid field takeoff." I agree that the intersection takeoff was a bad practice, I disagree that experimental vs. certified has anything to do with it.
