The comment doesn't even seem to contain opinion. It's simply objectively true. Let's be honest, you just didn't like the way it was directly calling out the author for writing shitty software. Responsibility is a thing and the author is displaying none of it.

I don’t know or care whether it’s “objectively true”. That style of commenting, i.e., “calling out the author” is not what HN is for, regardless of the truthfulness of the comment. You’ve been around long enough to know that. HN is for curious conversation between hackers, i.e., people who like to build things. Attacking people for building things in some kind of “wrong” way is not cool here. “Responsibility” is not mentioned in the guidelines but kindness is.
