Former Jigsawyer here. I think this article is pretty fair to Perspective given that it was never meant to be used in a fully automated way, just as a first pass to help forum moderators. It's very difficult when you blur the lines of

They were around. I remember that Izzy was a part of the conversation around modules for example.

I am in the middle of the same sort of sabbatical from Google. It was my first job out of college and I joined the same time as Jay. In fact for a time sat right across the aisle from the Go team when I was working on Abseil (abseil.io) and
