Woah there! I think you may have misread the parent as it looks like some friendly advice to me (with actual reasons and stuff), rather than the "You shouldn't have done that! You've destroyed your company!!!!" you seem to have read it as.

Heck, they didn't even say to retract anything from the report, just maybe to leave adding names to things until a later date in future incidents.

I'm not sure impugning their professionalism qualifies as friendly advice.

Again, you've put your own tone on things.

"It also keeps a sense of professionalism as it's clear that no blame is being assigned" is not the same as "you guys acted unprofessionally!". It's letting the GitLab guys know there's a potential problem with the communication style at that point in the story.

I find it funny that in a comments section full of comments about allowing a frank learning experience you're being so down on someone giving tips to consider learning from.
