And that was a dog whistle to you ? you realize in order for it to be a dog whistle it would have had to been intentional with malice right?

Honestly your attitude towards this is why the internet is so bloody toxic all the time now and simply not fun.

I provided no judgement. But, to actually provide it, I would call it a spectacular failure of cross-team communication. German QA flagged it as a problem.

I haven't given attitude beyond providing a link to a story, when someone else said they hadn't heard anything.
