If that elsewhere was on usenet, that is perfectly reasonable.

Usenet NG's, also this c.l.j., are not paid or free helpdesks, 
and the response is as the responder wishes,
not necessarily to the liking of the OQ,
and not necessarily an answer at all.

That usually the answer is ment to help you,
even perhaps in a way you do not want to be helped,
is just a happy or unhappy coincidence,
not your right.  

" > replied just to snark me on my variable naming convention "

There is a strong feeling that naming conventions are very usefull,
[ (naming-)conventions should be strict and not variable ;-) ]
and responses are not ment for the OP only, as this is not email,
so the response could be well ment.

So "just to snark" [I am just guessing what you mean by "snark",
never having heard the word before, but the "just" says it all] 
is obviously incorrect,
only reflecting your personal feeling, 
not necessarily or even probably the poster's intention.
