And you were paying attention to what he was saying perfectly, right?

Has it occurred to you that Christian might feel the same way about your exchange, just in reverse?

In the two contentious threads referenced in the article, I see Christian asking you for clarification, explaining why things can't be done like this, and making suggestions how it could be done differently. Doesn't really look like "he just wouldn't listen" to me.

P.S. AFAICT Christian was mostly explaining issues from the C PoV, I'm not sure he even made any direct statement about his position on Rust for Linux. Comments here trying to put him in a "maintainers resisting Rust" corner seem unjustified.
