If the tone of my message was a bit harsh, it was mostly to reflect his, and thankfully I do not have a life boring enough that this is "my moment".

Still, I stand by my point of view that at the time of writing, akamai's POC was presented neither as an absolute final fix nor as their own production version of it, and judging it as such was misplaced.

That akamai realized the flaws he noted in their patch also applies to the real world code doesn't change that.

I never said the flaws he pointed were not real flaws nor unimportant ones, I merely disliked the ridiculous and unjustified tone he used to to destroy a proposal and used the same against him.
