I agree with you, but I also feel like you're throwing pearls at swine. Some people will always have an incredible amount of entitlement to justify their laziness or incompetence.

I mean, the person opening the issue escalated this into socioeconomic issues just because they don't know how to use grep... What else is there to say?

I suppose one could try to see the value in the argument and engage in good faith discussion but it's easier to flippantly dismiss people like this, I imagine.

Sometimes you have to be flippant when engaging with trolls.

There wasn't enough thought behind the issue, other than being outraged at their unsatisfied entitlement

Slightly more than your response, at any rate
