major humble-bragging. In bad taste to do that in an announcement for a "competitor"?

That is a sad way to spin it :( but being strongly values-focused is a good thing not a bad thing, and inviting open discussion with competitors improves both systems, not diminishes it. Silencing discussion hinders progress.

We all have agendas; being obvious is a refreshing change.
