the actual problem is that boccassi is unpleasant to deal with in most public communication settings because of his communication style (abrasive, dismissive, frequently insulting). this is not the first time this behaviour created or increased friction, and made a simple, fixable issue into a flamefest. and it doesn't matter if he's privately the loveliest of the nice people around; the image he projects publicly will overshadow that, and adds to the bad reputation of systemd maintainers' social skills.
