No, the point made was that the author was unnecessarily aggressive. That does not imply that the author was not genuine.

The attitude of the author is definitely relevant to whether the library can and should be relied upon for inclusion in a project. Personally, this is a non-starter if I can pick up such a hostile, anti-community tone in a two minute review.

Examples:

> You can ask any question about Yue in the Issues page here, but please do not expect to get an answer.

> I know, and probably I know it better than you, I have been a long time open source project maintainer.

> To report a bug, you have to create a pull request with a test case of your problem, or you can choose to subscribe to paid plans.

I think "I'm an engineer, to save time let's just assume I'm always right" is the maximum size for a T-shirt joke.
