Appreciate the feedback. From my end, I have been both accused of name-dropping (ooh, look at Mr special, he works at Google!) and of having an unstated agenda (hey, he's a phony, he works there!).

I found that simply stating is the compromise. I am not using my employer.ent to justify my opinion, just making my alignment clear.

And in fact, I align with Google AND with Kubernetes.

Yep, I understand it's fraught and as I've just amply demonstrated, someone is always going to whine about something. It's just weird to see you all line up one after the other and and robotically announce your affiliation in the format typically used for unexpected-conflict-of-interest when it's actually important, not a conflict and you're trying to be helpful.

That and I enjoy the largely futile but infinitely noble fight against various HN-mandated atrocities against basic English style and I want you to be free.
