How about stopping to try to throw wrenches into what he's doing? It's not a hard concept, don't break user space under no circumstances ever, if you do it's a bug. If you cannot understand and know this by heart, don't even fire up your editor, you are not wanted in Linux kernel development. Fork it and PROVE he is not doing it the correct way by spending weeks and months and years of arguing with people who simply will not stop arguing, because you can't tell them to fuck off. This is the Sphinx asking you an easy question, and if you don't simply give the correct answer she helpfully provided in advance, you get burned to ash. You don't get to stand there arguing, and you certainly don't pass through. Instead complaining about it while someone is still doing it, learn to become so principled where it matters for the time when he can't do it anymore. That's infinitely more important than not swearing if you're older than 6. Have you looked around the world you're living in? Plenty of nuts people with plenty of vested interests. Plenty of weak people feeding them. If "not hurting feelings" is a priority to you, you are a hostage to those who will fake feelings until the cows come home. In turn you do not get to hold those hostage who see through it. How much of what people use, how much profit does Linux enable? But oh no, the bad man is swearing. Unbelievable. Uninstall everything that has traces of it in it, but spare me your advice on what I need to "stop excusing". There is no aggregate by the way, "we" doesn't have to agree with anything because it doesn't exist. I have my stance, you don't even propose yours.
