All I would like to say is that providing me with a website doesn't help me understand what you, Taka, think. :D What do you think? What is your interpretation of the sentence in question: To me, .... ? Help.
As you seemed to misunderstand benefactive as something beneficial, I gave you the link.

At least what I'm thinking, at this moment, is that, as I said repeatedly, it doesn't necessarily have to do with benefits.

Well, Englsih is your first language, right? Then, what kind of difference do you feel when you hear "To me it is important..." and "For me it is important..."? Native feel is something I don't have, and I think it really counts.
