I didn't think that you were (and having glanced at the paper now, there seems to be a lot more meat to it), but I think others will see only the plot. In my opinion, such a plot is misleading given the large variance I would expect in the

I know the point is to discuss style, but I wish he had done it in a way that didn't include a textbook example of floating point programming that can yield inaccurate results. An accurate way wouldn't be so difficult: http://en.wikipedia.
