Every single time any story has the words "Google developers" in it, they're behaving like arrogant, disconnected, anti-consumer jerks. From constant GCP breakage, to not acknowledging obvious Android bugs, to intentionally braking Chrome. It's a stark contrast to behind the scenes interactions with them.

If I didn't word it like that (I'm the author) the "reddit mob" would have exploded the thread. That's the last thing I want. I want valuable feedback there, for now its somehwat working.

Most of the users who saw the post on reddit didn't even open the blog post anyways, according to analytics.

I don't think the developers are bad, the problem are the top dogs that are telling them what to do.
