OT aggressive?

Been using my OT for the past week and really enjoy it. I always thought that it was considered an "Aggressive" razor. In a recent Thread it was takes about that the OT has almost no gap and little blade exposure which for me means mild.
Can someone set !e straight.

Blade exposure is relative. I would not call the Old Type particularly aggressive. I don't really feel any more blade in it than my NEWs. It's way less aggressive than my R41, Cadet, etc.

I don't find my OT all that aggressive, but it does give me smoother shaves than any other razor I've tried so far.

I don't find the OT all that aggressive. On par with my1932 tech I would think.

My understanding was that People's problem with the OT was the aggressive nature of it and that the New improved was trying to tame it.

Maybe I'm thinking of it being less forgiving.....

Yes it's not very forgiving but not aggressive.
