I read the readme only after this comment and was surprised by how detailed this was. Why would someone put effort complicated tool, benchmark it etc. at then not really take it seriously? Until I noticed who the author was, then it suddenly made complete sense

I don't know the author at all really, but I do appreciate a professional in any field who can find humor in their work and avoid taking themselves too too seriously.

The writing in the README reminds me of people like Derek Lowe (author of the In The Pipeline pharma/bio/whatever blog) and John D. Clark (author of Ignition!) who can create exceptional things and deliver knowledge in a humorous and engaging way.
