It's the most annoying thing about hn that people will regularly declare/proclaim some thing like this as if it's a Nobel prize winning discovery when it's actually just some incremental improvement. I have no idea how this works in these people's lives - aren't we all SWEs where the specifics actually matter. My hypothesis is these people are just really bad SWEs.
