Because people have feelings.

  Why should it hurt anybodies feelings to point out that Steve Jobs wasn't all fairy dust and benevolence? This need to whitewash people when they die is truly bizarre.

    We're not trying to whitewash it. It's just empathy. Would it have been so bad to wait a week or 2 after the funeral?

  People also have opinions and they should be free to express them.

    And my opinion is that RMS is being a D-bag. Freedom to express isn't freedom from bad responses.
