A lot of things can be true, and still not be worth posting thousands of times per year on HN.

Because do you see what's happened here? Whatever interesting discussion there might have been to be had on this project has now been smothered by the top-voted comment being just a tired repetition of the same "Google kills products, hehe, hehe" echo chamber.

I tend to prefer an occasional, short, low effort comment more than the long-winded, hall monitor style commentary on hacker news guidelines which so often follows.
