I would say that if you had been open about your reasons for wanting to  
remove the comments from the C code then you would have got a better  
reception. You still haven’t given a clear and open reason for doing  
this, instead you are hiding behind the “I’m the wounded party here”  
clause.

Be open and honest with the list and the list will help, if you try to  
hide things then the list will throw about allegations and accusations  
about your intent and you won’t the help that you requested.
