There is a distinction between sharing your opinion and sharing a judgment.

If you say you don’t like A, that is an opinion.
If you say you have concerns that A won’t work because you know XYZ, that is a judgment.

If you think A is a better choice because you prefer it, that is an opinion.
If you think A is the better option based on facts, that is a judgment.
