Speaking from my own personal observations, he's spot on when he says that people who have a casual attitude towards anathematization tend to be extreme and rigid in their natural disposition. If you think about it, extremism is diametrically opposed to the gentle and humane teachings of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). I honestly believe if religious scholars of different ideologies focus and emphasize this aspect of prophetic seerah, majority of the modern day issues pertaining to disunity and factionalism will disappear over time.
