I’ve been a pm Eng and designer and this sort of patronizing attitude sucks.

Look at the end of the day you should be cultivating fellow thought leaders because when you grow up you learn your priorities are more often than not just your own egotistical nonsense and wrong. But you have a lot of phrases to cut others down.

Try something different.

Is it actually all that patronizing to say "If your engineer really wants to work on something, you should probably let them"?
Sure there were some buzz words in there... But the actual core of the post wasn't patronising at all. Might need to take a step back and ask why your response to that was so strong.
Hundreds of borderline moron PMs. Armies of them.
