I wanted to specifically highlight that people can (and should) read the source code. I now see that this might have been a mistake. But I was hoping to share the joy of taking a cool tool and looking under the hood.
I think you're fine, don't worry about it. It's cool and someone will always complain no matter what you write.
You cannot win. The top comments on HN are _always_ pedantry. These people will always find something to complain about or nitpick while completing missing the forest for the trees.
I clicked through for the code first, and then got interested in the research. Thanks for doing it the way you did :)
