Increasingly technical rambling is good. What I hate is when techies start to imply that whoever they talk with is an idiot after they reach limit of their knowledge. That tactic is used surprisingly often.

It makes people scared to ask and passive.

No he means increasingly technical rambling that is also meant to obscure the fact that they don't know the answer. Definitely not good.
