Tbf, I chalked it up to a one singular cantankerous reviewer rather than the whole company.
I couldn't help but chuckle at your user name when reading this comment
I'm sad if developers can no longer name their variables poo and fuck.
Also teenage me would probably be horrified finding out 30 years later his source code was public.
I guess that's why moral rights are unalienable in many countries: if you are horrified what they do with it, you still retain that and this right did not go to your employer
Not that I think there is anything here the devs need to be ashamed of, to be clear, just what came to mind as I read this remark
So the RNG doesn't seem great.
