Nonsense. There is a big difference between "stating a view" and
"educating people who don't understand." The latter implies that your
experience is to be preferred to theirs.

Who exactly is "some guy sitting in a den pushing out code"? And if
that's not a patronizing put down I don't know what is. If you're
referring to me you couldn't be more wrong. I have been a development
director managing a couple of substantial teams, as well as having
worked in numerous commercial environments.
