I have to agree. I tried hard to read it, but half way through I couldn't shake the "my 8-year old is more mature than this" and gave up.
The author doesn't appreciate the motivation and constraints that led to this. Obviously Emacs has been hugely successful despite these perceived "flaws". For me, it's a feature that it still supports old terminals and yes, I do use it. I haven't seen the patch, but it wouldn't surprise me if it breaks old functionality that some of us depends on.

It manages to be fairly lighthearted and fun, while still teaching me something about Emacs. All in all, I really liked it.
