Please don't make such low-effort, insinuating, cliche comments on Hacker News. It makes the reading experience very poor.
Consider that the parent comment author might already be making pull requests to the projects of his interest. The snarky "PRs welcome" is therefore unnecessary and unwelcome. Everyone here knows PRs are welcome in an open source project. Some of us do send PRs. But whether someone sends PRs or not has no bearing on whether one can appreciate or criticize an idea as long as it is done in a substantive manner.
In fact, whether the parent comment author sends PRs or not is orthogonal to his complaint that we have too many build systems that is increasing the burden on users and maintainers. If you have something to say against this point, please do so on its own merit in a substantive manner without insinuations or ad-hominem attacks.
