The way I usually put it is that "if you expect to be excused because

it, it's an excuse".
Some excuses are valid, mind. That doesn't mean they aren't excuses.
I guess I'm finding it quite remarkable how much concerted effort seems
to
be going into try to make me feel ashamed of my behavior in some way,
which is how I read "feel like excuses."
Not ashamed, just bad ;-).
And it's not about you if you are the one leading the way forward ;-).
