Why must pointing out that someone is doing something incorrectly necessarily 
"shaming"? Those of us who review code do that all the time; telling someone 
that there is a better way to code something is certainly not shaming, since we 
all benefit from those suggestions.

Sure, you can also be a jerk about how you tell someone they can improve, but 
that's certainly not the norm in this community.
