Won't it be for the same reason that people involved in the Italian release
of the series post on this very list?

Agree. The fact that they rely on Bochan's script should eliminate the need
to analyze that aspect to begin with, and also, I can't see what this would
have to do with the dub, it'd be more for some in-depth documentation...

I (from a non mother-tongue POV) find it missing the point...it sort of
gives the feeling that this is something that has _happened_ to him, not the
way he establishes that he _is_ because of himself...I think it lacks the
self loathing that, for example, "I'm the worst/lowest" carries.
