I agree with Steve on everything, this was a huge blunder and fail in messaging from Linus. But you are supposed to reach out and ask for comment before running a story. I was a news reporter and have a master's in public relations.
Edit: Called Linus "Linux"
Yea, I think that and a few other nitpicky things are the only flaws in GN's argument. Otherwise, the testing results and Billet's response speaks for itself. LTT is going too loose and fast and while that's bad, it's understandable if you're a fledging company. That's all LTT had to point out. And instead of being humble and retrospective they put out this PR nightmare of a response.
I used to be a regular watcher of LTT, but really noticed their latest videos have declined in quality and it's apparent that they're just pumping out as much videos as possible.
