That phrase was used in a way that is dismissive, passive aggressive and shuts down the whole conversation.

Sorry, I'm just not reading it that way. It wasn't a direct reply, and it was directed at the larger Fedora community by someone whose job it is to help direct the community.

There also wasn't much of a conversation to shut down, since up until that point it was just a lot of demands being made in a rather blunt and rude way.
