Mostly it tells us that you don't have any visibility into twitter and have conflated end-user features with engineering output.

Your startup has over 300 million users? Operating at scale is functionality that requires a lot more work than a lot of people sometimes realize.

Huh? Telling of what? That you don't have a good grasp on what's going on at Twitter?
I've been saying for a while now that my cofounder and I add more functionality to our startup every two weeks than Twitter's 4,000 employees add to theirs in an entire year. Now this is obviously an apples-and-oranges comparison for all sorts of reasons, yet all caveats aside I think it's still pretty telling.
