My 2 cents here. My (very possibly wrong) impression, this seems the same way of thinking followed in commit db19efee951231b38573cffaadb15fad8f9c058d . I can understand this is a strong way to convince people to care about specific issues. Still, this seems a bit rude to me. On the other side, I can understand this problem can have pretty much security consequences, so both point of views make sense to me.
