The only blackfootian criticism I have is, you should have said that you were out of the author's league, not the other way around.
My take is what what she said is more blackfootian because she clearly doesn't think her H is out of her league. Ergo, author > her H. The other way seems almost placating...she's out of the author's league but not her H's.
