This article uses the word "flames" several times. I don't think that's a fair characterization of the discussion, which stayed largely focused on the technical.

"flame" has unfortunately become a muddled term, where any extended debate is thusly labeled. Back in the good old days, it referred to those moments where the intensity of emotion flashes over and wishes to burn opposing personalities to a crispy little biscuit.

There are not actually many flames out there these days; more's the pity. A creative flame is a sight to behold.

The issues raised were technical but I don't think it's unfair to characterise the discussion as flame-y. It would have been possible to discuss the same issues in a far less heated manner.
