I've also tried to help proposing solutions to those problems, such as using multiple dispatch. But I understand the fact that my tone was not appropriate.
I was also puzzled to hear from Stefan that there is nothing wrong with sprandn, whereas the coding guideline says otherwise. It just feels like when there is a "stop sign" and nobody cares about even slowing down. Then, one of the main designer of the rules for driving looks at you and says : "So what?". It feels really weird, which might explain but does not excuse my tone.
