Why would others care about his/her code being trashed publicly? Because we are all human beings. We all have feelings. Some of us are tougher than others emotionally but even those of us who don't give AF what others think feel something when hordes of anonymous master coder warriors on the net trash your work. It's also a reason people like joe rogan don't even read social media anymore because of all the hate generated by throngs of basement dwellers. It takes a toll on you to get a tsunami of criticism from internet trolls and those who just love to tear others down sadly. Why would anyone want to inflict that on themselves?
