Sure. Postgres misses a bug for years because they can't give even the most basic attention to someone on a mailing list, you know were you supposedly talk about things like bugs, and then defend the whole thing with excuses, rhetoric and further useless assumptions but I am the bad guy. This is exactly why people don't bother. Experience is just a liability these days in the "community". Companies maintain their own patches and conversations happens privately. Just sad to see such potential for accessibility wasted on arrogance. I guess it isn't really surprising though when everyone different already left.

You're basically just making shit up at this point. The most critical message in that thread contained pieces like

You keep making my point. All you have is defensive, deflecting and rude comments. If you disagree with something it isn't hard to say "I disagree that x is y because z", like anyone interested in a discussion would. I will keep this in mind when interacting with the community, commissioning work or buying services related to Postgres comes across my desk.

Turns out people don't like one baseless accusation after another. I provided you with concrete references where review comments where made, where people agreed it was necessary. Yet you deny that happened, without refuting anything concrete.

Note that you're the one hiding behind at least the third sockpuppet account.

There is really no point in carrying on this conversation. I have made a number of argument and you are the one who have accused me of things. First I was contradicting myself, then making shit up and now of hiding behind sockpuppets. I haven't denied anything, you singled out a single sentence of my comments where you could snipe at me. The overall point, the discussion, and the repeated arguments I have made still stands.

I am not hiding anymore than any other anonymous account and for no other reason than time management and privacy. I shouldn't frequent hacker news for reasons previously stated, but sometimes I tell myself that the decent thing is to reply. Especially as many people won't. Now it is clear that this discussion isn't going anywhere so I won't be creating any other accounts or comments. To prevent any ambiguity this won't change.

No one suggested having an anonymous account is an issue. The issue is the account being a sockpuppet one.
