I didn't address it in any of my comments because it was part of the section dealing with "criticisms" provided in Zed's rant. They're completely out of context and DHH *did* clarify the context in his own blog, IIRC. IMO, anyone who relies on Zed's ghetto rant for their context is not worth listening to. (Zed's ghetto rant is marginally worth reading on its own, but it's not a suitable basis for others to base their arguments on.) > Why should I concern this?
