I'm not sure if I've made this distinction before here, but it is very significant. I went to YouTube and found some very quick examples:
The thing that stood out with what Andrew Blum said is that being nice is really about you, not the other person. It's about making you feel more comfortable by avoiding confrontation. I like how he called the alternative courageous.
The thing that stood out in Mark Walsh's explanation is that sometimes niceness and kindness are the same thing, but not always. The photocopy of compassion.
