Seems like an unnecessarily hostile response.
It is a re-imagining because it has very little in common with the Windows ProcDump aside from doing a very similar task and name. For example it is a brand new implementation and many of the args have changed (M/m Vs. m/ml, or p for pid Vs. p for performance counter on Windows, etc).
If they called it a "Linux version of the Windows Utility" people would be complaining about that instead ("but the args aren't the same!"). So instead they call it a re-imagining and get attacks like this, it is a no-win situation.
