I think that paraphrasing matched what you were writing prettly closely.

But let's use a few quotes then:
"[...] don't treat uses as blatant idiots.
If I want to keep a proprietary JRE [...] that is my choice, not yours."

"I think I'm best placed than anyone else to evaluate the exact risk
I'm facing on the machines I'm running [...]. The decision [...]
belongs to me. You [Mageia] are not a system administrator [...], you
are a technical solution provider. You're clearly confusing the roles
here."

If that is not reading: Don't push the security updates to the users,
let the user take care of that manually, then what else?

Sure, call me lying, but then I call you schizophrenic.

ciao
