How does code reflect opinions on politics? I would understand that some people might feel threatened in interacting with them but other than that I do not follow the problem, especially in using their software. It is in everybody's best interest that a new browser comes up to challenge the existing choices.
I guess that is the point, you are saying you don't understand why it should be a problem, but other people do think it is a problem, thus there is a problem. You thinking it shouldn't be a problem does not negate the problem. Problem.
All I'm saying is I'd like the reasoning behind people considering it a problem. Polictical opinions are fine but they should never come in the way of technical innovation (except that governments adhere to breaking this rule more often than not, but that's for another time)
The reason is that it is an opinion that incites hatred. In theory these things should not get in the way of innovation but in practice that is not how it works, people are people and we have feelings about things.
