Really? I've only seen you in person at APC6, but you didn't seem bossy then. Lively, energetic, engaging, yes.
Rather than a break, perhaps it reflects staunchly-held principles? I wouldn't accept such an action from someone, either... but part of that for me would be simple resistance-to-orders, in addition to objection to the action's own adverse effects.
And I prefer non-hierarchical organizations, likewise... but if someone else is then picked as the leader, I'm likely to reflexively undermine and subvert their authority, unless/until they either drive me away or convince me that they have superior qualifications.
