Because of the slightly tongue in cheek style. It's something that would fit better in a Medium article, perhaps.

That's not to say that everything on HN needs to be cut and dry, but factual discussions seem a bit more productive, in my experience. To that note, having any stats on the prevalence of modular monoliths would have been awesome, or maybe even more information about feature flags - those are often not discussed all that much!

Oh, heck. I'm screwed, then. I'm a wiseass.
