I completely agree that this has been a shameful way to treat a
colleague and GCC developer. If objective review of the data contradicts
one's premise, one needs to accept that. Imposing different requirements
for different contributors and selectively including and ignoring data to
fit a preconceived conclusion has turned this patch proposal and review
into a farce.

Who is "we"? The private, internal discussion mentioned in an
earlier thread? Tree-SSA is a GCC community collaborative effort, right?
