I guess this is the response that some expected from Linus alongside his criticism of Hector Martin's brigading.

Hector Martin was a bit dramatic, but the mistreatment of the R4L team can't be denied. This isn't even the same email thread where Christoff outright rejected the patch. This is from a second email thread where Miguel Ojeda published a draft policy for Rust code in the kernel. Christoff was the first one to respond here too, with a somewhat hostile take. Torvalds allowed multiple mails from both of them before deciding to respond. It can't be considered as reactionary or a balancing act.
