But most of those who have CIs are profoundly deaf, and some may even drop from 95 -100 to 105+ after surgery -- so if anyone has a complaint about being looked down upon based on their audiogram, it's the CI community as a whole.
But honestly -- except for those of us who are living with a deaf person or who are deaf ourselves, most hearing people haven't got the faintest conception of the varying levels of hearing loss, they aren't classifying one person as "better" than another because one has a 60db loss and another a 100 db loss.
