His shock that this could be a clean room implementation would be meaningful, except that the WINE project has successfully clean-room reverse engineered much of the Win32 API (including private stuff) by observing how programs use them. Literally no one wants to read Microsoft code anyway; knowing them, it's probably horrendous.
Just a tip - if you want to make statements and have people take you seriously, stick to facts and don't add stupid things like:
