The first one didn't say anything about not complaining, it simply clarified that they did not provide feedback when offered the choice.. And the second one came AFTER the complaint about people saying that; so it was a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Switching back is a form of feedback... when prompted to enter "why"... saying "I don't like it because..." is better feedback. "I don't like it fellow users who can't do anything about it, Gmail sucks" is fruitless complaining, which isn't healthy for a user's forum either.
