Yeah, typical Microsoft developers (https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/10362). That issue was pretty mild, they felt threatened and used CoC principles ("combative") to shut down the threat.

This is how they also ruin "open" source projects like Python now.

That's a pretty terrible interpretation of events here. Along side the "combative" phrasing was a bit of self reflection

> Setting the technical merits of your suggestion aside though: peppering your comments with clauses like “it’s that simple” or “extremely simple” and, somewhat unexpectedly “am I missing something?” can be read as impugning the reader. Some folks may be a little put off by your style here. I certainly am, but I am still trying to process exactly why that is.

That post is literally not trying to shut down the conversation, it's simply reflecting on the tone of the commentator. elsewhere in the comment he even prompts for more discussion on the topic. At no point is the CoC invoked.
