That is correct, how else would he have gotten feedback from all of these well-known magicians? He has been a resident magician working in the bar for fourteen years. He takes pride in his internet advertising with his products and quotes from other famous magicians.

Here, we see him expressing what he is through the internet. Why would he be waving that fact around?
Kind of off topic, but his wording in this particular part of the passage reminds me of Johnny.

it's odd... we never disputed his talent or skills... weren't we just saying that his personality towards other magicians that was bad?( i know of the spring control thing, that may have been our fault)

That's exactly right.

But, it seems like Jonathan was going off track, so we decided to hitch a ride beside him

But as you have said, it's not skill, abilities, knowledge, experience, or whoever famous you know that matters. If you have poor respect for other people, then it just doesn't work out in the end.

I see where he is coming from, when he mentions extremely under-experienced magicians criticizing him. Even if it wasn't true, even I would feel sort of confuzzled (yes, I just added confused and puzzled together).

But being able to accept that is a trait that Jonathan was not willing to learn while boasting wayyyyyyyy too much then was necessary. I just don't agree with how he deals with people he either sees inferior or as a threat. It's very primitive from my perspective.
