I am sorry if I have been harsh and if I have hurt someone. I was
*not* my intention. Otherwise, I would not spend 5 minutes to follow
all the links and check how to reach help for the GNU Guix project

Yes, we should. However, to be honest, reading GNU related mailing
lists over the last past months and especially the recent emacs-devel
threads, I do not personally have enough energy to potentially argue
the obvious on bikeshed.
Cheers,
simon
