The real surprise is that Stallman restrained himself from telling the dev that having children is unethical.

He can actually keep on topic when it comes to free software.

Yet GNU and FSF aren't everything RMS is, so he has his own personal website. I would assume you've learned about his views on having children there.

Yes I have. And my quip was not to criticize his views, but his frequent bluntness in expressing them.

His comments about children were actually expressed in a GNU mailing list, but sure, move those goal posts.

Why would he? Aren't children free software (if you didn't sell copyright on your DNA)?
