It's certainly a candidate for weirdest irrelevant flame interjected
into an otherwise reasonable thread.

No, this is fine for LAD.  Emanuel is a developer and he had a
question that's relevant to developers.  The thread digressed a bit,
but in a gentle enough way, and we all know how to ignore a thread if
we don't want to read it.

This is not such a high-traffic list, at least when you weed out the
stupid flames.
