Just as well, given some of the problems they have to face... :-)

More seriously, I think you're confusing my views on the issues with my
views on the people.  One humorously-intended remark does not a "blatant
dislike" make.  I loathe the architectures.  There is nothing particularly
wrong with the people except for an apparent inability to distinguish
good projects (worthy of their time and talents) from vile, disgusting ones.
This is a serious lapse of taste and judgement but does not imply that they
are stupid, lazy, or incompetent.  Indeed, their intelligence, diligence,
and competence in service to the x86 are all too depressingly obvious.

(All the above said with tongue slightly, but only slightly, in cheek.)
