The Gray Area of Favorable Intermediate Risk 3+4=7

Glad that AS was your choice and that it's going well for you.
The purpose of this thread was not to advocate for treatment over AS. But to rather point out that the medical community still doesn't have clear guidelines for choosing options for 3+4=7. And because of this, it's not wise for some to come here and say that for all men in this category, the only choice is AS. It can be a choice for some, but for others treatment is the best option. Each man's decision should be honored.

I’m sure I haven’t read every post in this support group; but I have never seen anyone say that ALL 3+4 men should choose AS. Maybe there are such comments, but they are definitely "one-offs".
I’m in other groups that concentrate almost exclusively on AS, and even there folks do not make such statements.
In any case, I’m in complete agreement with your last two sentences.
