Maybe it was because there was not the amount of foliage on it that was planned to be there when you saw it. And it looked a bit bottom heavy to you.
One must take into consideration the final plan when making suggestions.
In the workshop that we worked on your raintree do you remember the first question that I asked you.
"what do you want this tree to look like in 5 years"
The answer you gave let me know what you wanted the final product to look like. Then we worked on your plan. I knew where you wanted to go with that tree. Only a few minor changes were made to your plan. I could help you with those changes only after I knew where you wanted to go with that tree.
An important concept. Know the plan. Then make suggestions.
