To put things in context, Linus is being reasonable and wise and well-mannered once again. Wouldn't mind reading a few juicy expletives, to be honest.

As someone else in the thread notes, they seem to be talking past one and other. [0]

Linus may view his job as "Saying No" but the way he does it still leaves a little to be desired, because his reasoning is sound here, but it's less "Follow my reasoning" than "You don't want to get yelled at again do you?"
