> Does this have to be viewed as a polar opposite response to "Dear GitHub"?

I can't see how it isn't. I thought the original was quite clear that they appreciated Github, but this undercuts it.

Imagine any scene where you're talking to the manager of some establishment. You say "Hey guys, this is great, but can you fix the blinds, we've been waiting an hour to not be blinded?" Someone next to you pops in with "Hey guys, I love it here!"

They've just undercut your argument without even addressing it. It is, frankly, rude.
