Who's we? This seems to be a pet issue of yours. I'm curious who else is

What kind of standards for behavior we want and think are acceptable is a
core concern of everyone in the Wikimedia and MediaWiki technical
communities.
This kind of personally-directed and demeaning feedback ("This seems to be
a pet issue of yours") is, perhaps ironically, precisely an example of why
it would improve interaction in technical spaces to have some clearer
ground rules.
