I have no doubt that Ray really believes those nice things he says. But I also think it would be impossible for him to get in the studio and not be a control freak. And until Dave is ready to put with that for the sake of the music (and the money, Reg, let's not forget the money), he would resent every minute of it, and would fight it with sulks and rages and other unproductive tactics. And they'd be at each others' throats all over again.
On one hand I think Ray knows this. On the other hand, I think he wishes it were different -- and being who he is, he fantasizes that different scenario so strongly, eventually he comes to believe his own fantasy.
Which one is more in the wrong? That's not for us to say. But I think they both contribute to it. And while it may have been a very creative partnership, it's dysfunctional as h*ll.
