"Yep. It could be argued that the first is more readable though" -> I agree with you that this vote should not have been down-voted. I feel like the down-vote was more of a "I think what you said is wrong" rather then a "this comment was useless or misplaced". However, I feel like the following replies coming from you were unnecessary aggressive. In your first comment, after you saw that people didn't understand the meaning, I think it would have been better to edit it and explain - without being aggressive - what you intended by "more readable".
