What I love about LWN is that we can have productive dialogs in the comments, but it's tough to do so with that kind of tone. Your suggested criticism was already addressed in the article. Search for the section containing "binary package server".

It's not as if what was so disparaged by maks was impossible even in the
*absence* of the binary package server. rsync works anywhere, after all,
and you can rsync your speed-critical stuff around easily (at least you
can if it's an even slightly competently written distributed app).
