You are kind of exemplifying the attitude that the parent comment complains about. You have standards that are not being met, but instead of communicating clearly you just try to shame the other person.

I understand communicating such simple things is not as simple as the thing would make it seem. In fact, the point of the article was that such work is unappreciated.

But just because it's not appreciated it doesn't mean it's not important. You should still do it.
