For the record, I think Soni's original description (implying that the thin wrappers like iter(x) calling x.__iter__() etc are in some way bad) was rude, but not a CoC violation or anything. It's the sort of rude that colours someone's posts and thus other people's views of their arguments, but shouldn't get the person banned. But it WAS rude, and I don't think Rhodri was wrong to call that out. If you're going to rail on the code patterns that currently exist (profane language is mostly irrelevant here), that really doesn't do your arguments any favours, and it's fine IMO to call someone out for it just as much as you'd call someone out for posting their entire feature request in all-caps with no punctuation or line breaks.
