Though I'm just some whackadoodle comment poster, I have to point out that this article and the comments are full of impolite content. The "hurt Musk" guy is the focus of a featured article edited by one of the main editors. The "hurt Musk" guy seems endorsed by LWN.

"Covered by" LWN is not the same as "endorsed by" LWN. Also it's irrelevant what position in LWN the author of the article holds: it's not the case that the more senior the editor, the more you can assume that LWN endorses it.

The only mentions I find ANYWHERE in either the article OR the comments when I search for "Musk" are (a) the one reference in the article that you quoted, and (b) your comment and the replies. It feels to me like you're reaching here.
