His failure instigated all of this. The displacement of Nero, the evacuation of the Kelvin, the destruction of Vulcan. So many deaths he must answer for. How much different, better, would Jim's life be if not for him? He has touched some of the pain Jim Kirk keeps close in his heart when they mind melded on Delta Vega. Knows much of his own pain was shared with the young man at that time too.
"I know no such thing but it is gratifying to hear you say so." What would be the point in arguing semantics with Jim? The young captain has him more well figured out than even he knows.
"It causes me great pain when I think of how many lives were altered or ended because of all of this."
