Sometimes friends and associates give me grief for over-using the first person during discussions. I am aware it sometimes comes off as egotistical, but there is a more central reason for it. The practice stems from my viewpoint on the world.
"I" seems, to me, more honest and based on personal experience.
"You" or "they" is more often judgmental, a degree removed, and likely to be wrong.
