I thought personal insults and appeal to authority were frowned upon here.

It is, but I think he is understandably upset because people are engaging with you in good faith but you aren’t reading or acknowledging what they write. Sometimes, it’s good to just take a step back and start with something like “Oops, I missed you are a professor and this is a teaching tool. Disregard that part. I do think, however…”
Otherwise, you’re bound to annoy someone even if you think you are technically contributing.

The whole point is that I absolutely don't care who or what he is; everyone can learn from the C4 family, and if anything, it would be highly suited to someone teaching compilers.

I see the title has been changed now, but I was certainly annoyed when it was advertised here as a "complete" compiler.
