The above comment is misinformed, but in no way obnoxious.

There was no reason to downvote it.

Actually there are no guidelines about voting whatsoever.

However arguably it's a bit rude to ding people simply for being (mildly) misinformed.

And the guidelines do ask us not to be rude.

If pg says it is a good idea, I am inclined to agree with him.
