I agree the part about the low expectations of the foundation isn't constructive, but I feel like some open display of emotion is necessary after a person openly refuses to have an honest discussion. In the PR she repeatedly ignores the maintainer to push her changes. Then in the 'apology' she doesn't really apologize and isn't really straightforward about what really happened. In the PR the maintainers were pretty reasonable in their communication and it didn't really change the directors approach. I feel like when communicating with someone who repeatedly works in bad faith at some point all you can do is walk away. This emotional poster is doing that but before doing so making sure it is clear to others that this is not okay. I think that's better than saying "I repectfully disagree" because that makes it seem like it's just a slight misunderstanding rather than someone working in bad faith.
