FYI, I talked to Justin and tried to get him over here, but he won't
join the discussion. 
In his opinion there's too much zealotism here and thus he sees it as a
waste of time. Also, regarding the initial quote he said that it was an
opinion rather than a statement of fact.

I would have liked to see a discussion, whatever the outcome may have
been.
Looks like it's not gonna happen.
