I'm arguing right now with a user who things that the developer of rsync should either change how they write code or hand over their project to someone that meets their personal standards for how software should be written.

The entitlement is strong in that one!

Have you mentioned yet that anyone can do that second one by making their own fork? And that no one is required to give a fuck about how they think it should be done?

Yes! They don't believe forking is good enough because his version of rsync is mainline. That's why he thinks the rsync developer needs to give up his project to someone else.
