      Case in point.

      What we have here folks is what I referred to before as a purity testing asshole. Unfortunately, open source is full of them. Most of them aren’t even developers. It’s pathetic

        Though I agree with the point you’re making (purists and pedants are unhelpful), IMO there’s no need to stoop to their level and attack them.

        You are definitely right though. The open source community is full of these people unwilling to change, which is ironic given how vehemently they request others to change and accept open source. It’s nigh dogmatic, which I think is problematic.
