The last half is basically his own opinions stated as truth from God, which, to me, makes him look like a complete tool. Personally I'm not a fan of parens around the conditional in ifs, but I don't go around spouting that it is the only true way.

It basically makes me write off the first half, even if it is correct (I'm not a linux dev, so I don't know).

Added: From the reply on lkml I'm not the only one.

It's a style that has been recognized as humorous for decades before the corporate CoC-wielding bureaucrats moved in. Much more refreshing than passive aggressive replies like this one:

I think Rust is not a culture fit for the Linux kernel and its adoption will further undermine Linux.

Humorous? I don't think how anyone could think stuff like "I cannot view with less or vim. Therefore it looks not at all." as even remotely funny.

Sounds just like "neckbeard yells at cloud" style to justify that the world does not do exactly what he wants.
