In this case, I feel like people are commenting for the sake of expressing their opinion, without much regard if it is materially contributing to the topic at hand. And now, neither am I. :(
I was commenting on why jonhohle might have been "finding more than a few issues with AFL at a FAANG in code written by engineers with the highest engineering title". I don't know the context he was finding them in, because he didn't think it was relevant enough to mention, and my whole claim here is that you have to take that context into account.
