This is way over the top.

I thought the author did an amazing job of discussing a highly technical topic in a very approachable way. Every blog on HN should aspire to write like this! It was so good it got me reading other posts even.

Yes, it would have been nice for us non- domain experts if the author had done the classic "Conflict-free replicated data type (CRDT)" thing, but you can easily just say that, ya know? "Hey, it would be helpful if you expanded CRDT early on."
