Is not a direct comparison between the author and middle school attitudes and conduct and being juvenile extremely patronising? (Almost by definition, given the description 'juvenile', ie youthful or child-like.)

There's conduct and commentary that follows the Hacker News ethos, and there's conduct and commentary that does not. This does not. It is a pity to read it.

Not being the author I can not definitively express their intent.

You seem to desire to be an enforcer of rules in this thread, which is admirable, but ultimately not your authority or responsibility to do. I would respectfully suggest you leave moderation to those with the authority to do so.
