> Thanks for the reality check

What reality check? One online commenter you don't know contradicts another online commenter you don't know.

The second commenter (at least claims to) be currently working not just at MS but on that very project. They could be trolling, but I doubt it.

And you're basing the truthfulness of his statement on what, exactly? That it corroborates with how you want to feel about the original poster? Hardly a "reality check."

Common sense, and a reasonable Bayesian prior for these things. And the fact that (whatever his intrinsnic talents) what the first guy was saying just smells like BS, and he seems backpedal a lot.
