> You have no rights whatsoever to question what a person is willing to put into an open source project.

You are being manipulative. In your sentence, "to question" means "to challenge, dispute, or express doubt about". When I said it was a fair question, I said it made sense to wonder why one would invest so much into a project and not be willing to invest $200, which is obviously perceived as marginal by the person who asked the question.

A constructive answer may be: "because they can afford working on this in their free time for 10 years, but they cannot afford spending $200 on it". Another one may be: "you are over-estimating what $200 of AI would do there, if it was enough they would probably do it". There are many ways to engage in a constructive manner.

Now talking about mirrors, let me quote you one last time:
