That's how we get flamewars. What feels like honest bluntness on the inside seems like trollish flames on the outside—not to everyone, of course, but reliably to someone, who then feels justified not only in reacting but escalating.
The only way out of this, if you want to have an internet forum that doesn't burn (which we do!) is for everyone to practice making their points in a more thoughtful way. Maybe you don't owe better to the closers-of-source-code; but you owe it to the community if commenting here.
