This is not a new message. Mauro knew this already. He just didn't internalize it. Sometimes, after saying the same thing quietly, and being ignored, you have to raise your voice in the hopes people will listen. Ultimately, of course, if people continue to refuse to listen, all you can do is fire them (which in the open source world, is to publically tell them not to bother to send you pull requests). Short of taking that drastic step, it's not like an open source maintainer can dock someone's pay.
In general, Linus only yells at people who should have known better. Mauro definitely fell into this camp.
