that’s insulting, right? Fixation is a mental disorder you label me with.

The second is a tautology, being too X is always a bad thing, isn’t it? Even being too nice. The quotes ridicule them. Please sport friendlyness and precision in discussion.

A last thing: if super-smart people demand empathy without having contributed a thing I’m not impressed. No matter how large their companies and numerous their followers may be. However, I am impressed by [25 years of OCaml](https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/25-years-of-ocaml/7813) or [Is rescript damaging Ocaml ecosystem? - #27 by mars0i](https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/is-rescript-damaging-ocaml-ecosystem/7204/27).
