There's a difference between gratuitous negativity and criticism of an idea. To quote the article introducing the guideline:

> By [gratuitous negativity] we mean negativity that adds nothing of substance to a comment.

I would say that what I've seen here tends to be constructive. Even the criticisms of speed are not gratuitous - they're about an important issue affecting the site.

I do see some comments that are needlessly negative, so props for the reminder, but I wouldn't call it "an awful lot".
