TBH I don't see any reason to be offended here.
What Andrew is pointing out is that this path can be a slippery slope into
dependency on GitHub infrastructure.

That remark may have been unwarranted. FWIW I don't agree with it.
But I don't think it lowers the anger-and-frustration standards of this
discussion following:
"Thank you for your insightful comment. That's very helpful. Really,
thank you a lot. Gentoo would be much worse without such helpful
comments. Why do we need community at all, when one developer with his
helpful comments can provide all there is ever needed by the distro."
