Ben makes use of that document on a daily basis to maintain the 3.2.y
tree, so I suspect he has read it.  More importantly, as maintainer of
a stable branch, I suspect he is familiar with the de facto rules.

Is there some specific misleading wording in the document?  Pointing
it out, perhaps with a suggested replacement, could lead to the text
being fixed, which would be a nice outcome that could make up for the
pointlessly inflammatory discussion.

Hoping that clarifies,
Jonathan
