I've never heard this. I always find relevant alternatives in HN comments as helpful, allowing people to compare and contrast different features and functionality.

I also don't see anything in the guidelines about this kind of thing, has a mod commented about it before?

Again, it wasn't about the posting of the alternative. It was the casual dismissal plus the lack of any useful feedback.

This wasn't a Show HN when the comment was posted, though, so it's a moot point.

The datapoints are definitely interesting. Thanks for sharing what you use!
