Hold on a minute! You're passing very quickly over a major point of controversy that has exercised the minds of tea makers since time immemorial; namely, whether to add the milk to the cup before or after pouring in the tea. You can't just blithely assume that your preference is shared by all the country. At this very moment millions of "tea firsters" are probably seething over their cuppas and composing vitriolic replies!
