I get the point he's making. But still, if he didn't like the lack of nuance why not find somewhere to work other than Microsoft?

What a great example of his point.

You just picked a single item and acted as though it were the only consideration in the universe.

Did be anywhere say that this interesting phenomenon he observed was the worst thing in the world and made MS intolerable? Did he anywhere say that this was a uniquely MS problem?

This article was about dynamics of one-to-many communication with humans, not about why MS sucks.

This also seems like a great example.

I'm charging that he didn't in fact "get the point he's making".

He didn't make a nuanced reaction that recognizes two different truths, he stated one thing and then stated the opposite.

"I'm a generous person but I just want everything for myself." is not an example of nuance. It's an example of one or the other statement simply being untrue.

Fair enough, but you didn't just miss nuance, you inserted novel events.
