Dang said this to you to placate you and to stop you from stoking a flame war, which is what's happening again. He wasn't endorsing your project.
He was saying there is no need for a flame war not because your language is fine, but because flame wars are not fine on HN.
I think lang author is asking to not start flame wars, but there are bunch of people (you included) attacking him first in this topic, and he can't respond?
He can't respond if he doesn't want to engage in a flame war. I'm a dog on the internet, he's the dev of a project he's pushing that is trying and failing to build a reputation as someone trustworthy.
or he just became a target of some salty internet mob which is now following him everywhere, and many other people(me included) actually find his work interesting.
