I generally tend to agree that he can be extremely opinionated especially these days. A lot of his opinions being on first-principles helps, though some of those have evolved a bit over the year. The red book in particular I appreciate because it wasn't solely Stonebreaker but rather a collaboration. My understanding is the updated version there was a bit of back and forth on some of those things about re-writing history or being overly opinionated on certain things that were a bit one sided vs. a balanced view. The end result ended up nice and balanced, but it was in large part because it was a work of 3 very knowledgable people in the space.
