Surely you are familiar with the concept of connotation, whether
intentional or not. Compare this…
"This bug seems like it could have been caught sooner with
better testing and code auditing. Is there a reason you don't do
more of that? Here are some suggestions for making testing
easier and more robust."
…with…
"WOW, this is a REALLY DUMB MISTAKE. How could a bunch of people
who are *so smart* make such a _boneheaded_ blunder? It confuses
me because I'm used to a development culture that puts software
quality *first*. I'm not commenting on anything, just asking
a question."
If you think I'm exaggerating, go back and read what you wrote. It's not
much of an exaggeration.
