Please be specific, can you tell me where in the latest patch there's "patronizing" in action? Note that the whole "developer duties" chapter is not new. I'm not introducing it. And the purpose of the developers-reference has always been broader than "technical answer to technical question". We have always had explanations of procedures of how to interact with various teams and the associated expectations put on the maintainer.
