This is just what it looks like to care about the details, though certainly a more trivial case than most.

The resistance to it is part of why most engineer-types like HNers can't build UX. They think it's all agonizing and navel-gazing, so they don't deliberate over anything. And they don't practice it, so when they see someone making deliberate UX decisions, even trivial ones, they think it must have taken a lot of time.

Good UX comes from a chain of trivial-looking decisions in isolation and a culture of caring about it.

This isnt caring about the details, this is going over the top on something completely unneccessary just to get attention for it.
