Thank you, and that was my guess, but I had been hoping the parent poster had a better reason for it. I get rather frustrated with the "first-world problem" argument, as it can be used to dismiss almost any problem at all. So long as there exists a worse problem somewhere, every other problem can be dismissed as irrelevant. What started as a way to dismiss complaints of minor inconvenience ballooned out into a dismissal of major systemic problems.
