Your post is not in the spirit or letter of Show HN and its guidelines which, again, you can check out in the URL in my comment - they address your specific points.

Be respectful. Anyone sharing work is making a contribution, however modest.
Ask questions out of curiosity. Don't cross-examine.
Instead of "you're doing it wrong", suggest alternatives. When someone is learning, help them learn more.
When something isn't good, you needn't pretend that it is, but don't be gratuitously negative.
Ok, since I have to spell it out....
My post was NOT "being a jerk". My post was NOT personally targetting anyone.
My post was telling the reality. Truth hurts, as they say.
Do a search of HN. Do a Google search.
There are SO MANY people out there touting themselves as an alternative to Bloomberg, when they are clearly not. The product under discussion here is just following the same path many before it have trodden.
It is an abuse of the Bloomberg name, plain and simple.
Sell your product in other means, but don't go pretending you are something you are not.
