I agree.

The goal of the CoC should be creating awareness that a perspective is
might be perceived differently and let the OP know. The goal here isn't
policing the thoughts. Wording in the email is not helping here.

On the other hand, I do not think the issue is not the limitation of
expressing the truth as the OP mentions. If a person has a disability, you
don't seek for reasons to announce it on a public forum and then claim you
are the savior of truth. English proficiency issue is similar given native
and fluent users of the English language are clearly more advantaged in
English speaking communities.

We have many people in the community that are not necessarily using this
language as their primary language and IMHO solely focusing on this fact is
a distraction and received badly on the other hand.

I agree with some replies here saying that r/golang has far more worse.
Things look like they are cherry-picked because no one uses conduct@ and
once a single case is reported, it is perceived as people are reacting
excessively on a specific case.
