I disagree. It's not OK for contributors to react defensively when asked questions, and in particular I don't think it's OK that some contributors are punished for merely disagreeing, while others are given a pass for snarling at feedback. This is double standards.

The Git project should not play favorites, and all contributors should be asked to assume good faith.

It should be implied that the feedback given is to try to improve the project, it should not need to be stated.
