To me the problem with this project is more the puffed up description than anything else. Lots of "awesome" "wow" "woah" type self praise for their project, and a lot of "without the suck" "ugly DLLs" etc. for other solutions. If it were described as just a simple humble Node.js shell without the puffery and unnecessary bash at Cygwin, I doubt you'd see the same vitriol. (Personally, I could use a little less of this trend in computing for everything to be awesome and everyone to be rock star ninja guru superstars. For reasons like the responses here show.)
