I think we generally agree on this. The one part if your oerspective I doubt I will ever get a handle on is why you feel A2P effectively constitutes dialling down the nastiness, especially when you appreciate A2M.
Not denying that is how you feel or that you "shouldn't" feel that way. Just that I can't get my head round it. Seems to me to be one of the nastiest acts around.
Well, imagine you have a nastiness ladder (or hardcore ladder, or whatever you want to call it). Anal is obviously higher up the nastiness ladder than vaginal, so if they stop fucking her ass, in order to fuck her pussy instead, they have taken a step down on the nastiness ladder. Of course, some guys (Adriano, for example) just go rapidly back and forth (one stroke in the ass, one stroke in the pussy, one stroke in the ass, one stroke in the pussy, etc.). In that case, my problem with it is not so much a lack of nastiness, but rather that it kills the rhythm of the scene, in the same way that changing positions every few seconds kills the rhythm of the scene. Still, if I had to choose, that's better than stopping the anal entirely.
One other reason for my aversion to ATP is that, as I've mentioned in other threads, there seems to be a direct tradeoff between the amount of ATP and the amount of ATM in any given scene, and since there's rarely enough ATM for my taste to begin with, I certainly don't want to sacrifice any of it. To put it another way, every time I see a cock coming out of an ass, I'm hoping it's about to go into a mouth, so when it goes somewhere else, I'm always a little disappointed. It's particularly frustrating when they go ATP and then PTM. That makes me want to throw something at the screen!
