I tried to find the source of the "V has to die" comment, and I see that you linked this in a previous claim that Xe said "V should die": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27442724

Actual quote from this comment:

  Personally I think it is something that should be ignored until it dies into obscurity
  There are good ideas there, but if you sell someone the moon and give them a block of cheese that's kind of a scam

This is definitely not "has to die". This is "should be ignored" and a prediction that V will die, justified by disappointment at the large gap between their interpretation of V's marketing vs the reality of the current state of V.
