I don't think this is comparable. The parent comment doesn't make a value judgment on whether the strategy of using the Linux utility is a comparable offering; it's just a potentially suggestion to try to help when it seems like someone is frustrated with the solution they currently have. Giving a highly technical way of doing something isn't inherently a problem; the issue is when someone claims that it's more than sufficient and that no easier way needs to exist, but that didn't happen here.
