That's not a good faith interpretation.

Why on earth would I assume, given that comment, that he is posting in good faith? I'm not going to assume good faith when someone has made it clear they're only here to look down on shared information.

Genuinely, I think you're missing cultural context.
Many of us share a general lighthearted humor about the state of the industry: Becoming a developer in some fields is less about engineering and more about "piecing things together."
Nobody's looking down on anyone. This is often something we joke about because we find ourselves piecing things together, too, almost to a point of silliness. It's not a rip at anyone sharing information, more like a jarring reality check.

But is it obvious? I'm sure others resonate with that.
You have to consider the possibility that his criticism is entirely valid and that a non-zero number of people find this roadmap way more convoluted than it ought to be.

...is pompous and holier than thou. Being unable to see the value in this infographic doesn't mean it's trash, and I think it's unnecessary to comment with such an arrogant attitude like that, especially when it's obvious they're just either not the intended audience or they're misinterpreting the goal of the graphic.
