Was told my kimchi was too salty - made me rethink everything

My buddy Jeff tried my last batch of kimchi and said it tasted like a salt lick. I used to just eyeball the salt ratio for years and thought it was fine. Went from about 3 tablespoons of salt per napa cabbage down to 2 and let it brine for only 4 hours instead of 6. Now the baechu comes out way more balanced and the ferment actually lasts longer in the fridge. Anyone else get knocked down a peg by a friend's honest feedback?

My grandma once told me my jjajangmyeon was too sweet. Still stings.
