Everything you wrote is actually correct, so I'm really not sure why you're being voted down, but it's a behavioral pattern I've noticed on HN in general: write anything that's not high praise or in any way disagrees with what's popular and expect to be brutally censored. It really has me contemplating ditching HN altogether, if all we're ever going to do here is stroke eachothers' egos and pander to popular trends. And here I thought the point of HN was stimulating discussion.
