First of all, I think it's a terrible idea, pure and simple, Honda, Toyora, or VW. Super + Turbo on a small 1.4 engine, to me, is a risky idea. LIke it or not, that's what I think. If you don't think it's risky, more power to you.

But if you can't even take a criticism on an obvious possible risk that VW takes, don't try to turn that around and say that I will praise Honda for making a small engine. That is unfounded. I had not done that in the past, and I do not know what makes you think that.
