>The project you are creating is, or should be, an intellectual endeavor and it serves no technical purpose to push your personality onto users.

Plenty will find that attitude offensive. Like, who do you think you are telling people what their project should be.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't put personality in it, just that intrinsically the product doesn't need it so if you strive to make it great then don't burden your users with noise.
