Don't make the mistake of thinking the pattern "[something perceived as greater than X] is just glorified X" calls into question the value of X. Rather, it's the perception of being greater that is being called into question.
If I say "soda is just glorified water" do you think I'm mocking water and that I don't think water is vital for all life on this planet?
I think it's pretty well understood that calling something "glorified" is making fun of it. Perhaps I guess you meant to mock TDD but it also seems like you are mocking writing documentation.
While it could cut either way I guess, I decided to take a snap judgement (like 99% of your readers) and call you out on it. Sorry.
