Sorry, I can’t agree with your characterization. Obviously nitpickers exist, but the general community can be very helpful. Some people have strange ideas and expect everyone to go along, but everything is up for discussion.

Especially for people coming from cultures where confrontation or directness is frowned upon this leads to the impression that OSM is a fighting ground, but there can be no discussion without disagreement.

No need to apologize for disagreeing! I also think the OSM community has a ton of really fantastic people, who are excited to work together to make something really neat. Unfortunately, it's not true across the board, and the tone of this article does a great job of illustrating that.
