I think the gp's intent was to give constructive feedback, something to be encouraged for beta products in particular!

  When I first read the comment I read it as overly confrontational and I didn't really like it(esp. after reading the thread on flagging.) I didn't read it as feedback because it wasn't a Rate my startup submission but a techcrunch post so it felt like a tl;dr comment. Viewing it as a constructive feedback comment makes it seem less snarky and less confrontational.

    Ah, sorry - my intent wasn't to be snarky or confrontational. I automatically switched to review mode after reading that it's a YC startup, since I figured the founders would be seeing this thread.

  Definitely - we understand and appreciate the spirit of HN. All the feedback here is gold.
