I wasn't certain, but it was the only grammatical error I could see in the comment.

Do you know it was due to grammar? I've seen mention that some people will down vote for disagreement, for example.

I hadn't considered it. The HN crowd is a lot better at understanding that downvotes are for comments that do not contribute to the conversation, rather than what they disagree with.

Maybe that's a more popular trend now? Having been active on HN for a long time and watched it evolve I guess I could see that...

Anyway, the branch of the conversation has gotten quite deep down the 'meta' rabbithole.
