Why are all of your comments about accounts and post metadata, even where its not relevant?

It definitely is relevant here, buries the lede and tells that you're trying to skirt the HN guidelines.

Nothing exists in a vacuum and the surrounding context can and IMO *should* be taken into account.

It couldn't be less relevant. It's noise that distracts from the interesting core of the topic. When I'm reading HN, I don't want a long string of "oh btw theres an account on this website called abc_defg". I doubt it's interesting to anyone with sense.
