i would add to that: extreme inequality is often visible from the outside, but the more subtle the inequality, the harder it is for an outsider to comment thereon.
and further: inequality is possible even when, from an outsider's view, everything is picture-perfect.
as well: the line between "well-meaning" and "nosy" is notoriously blurry. one of the reasons i choose to live in a large city is that I get fewer of both, and more opportunities to think/feel/live as I please and not how my neighbors/family/etc. want me to live.
none of which may have any bearing on what you posted. :)
