Which is super weird cause it only seems to apply in certain circumstances, usually media criticism. If I say "Jack Black was always an annoying asshole." No one smugly tells me I should have instead said "it is in my humble opinion that Jack Black has always been an asshole.' They just make the very easy mental connection. If a statement is either inherently an opinion based on its nature there is no need to preface it, it's a waste of time.
I think it's more a matter of gaging how popular your take is going to be with those in your immediate surroundings. Everyone here is probably going to agree with you assessment of Jack Black.
Pick a different guy then. It's just an example.
