A count of lines is hardly a good sign of quality... heck, I noted that when
speaking to Marek and noting how my solution was only 17 lines (or
whatever). It was noted to speak to how simple the program is (few lines and
nothing "clever" to keep it short -- could have made it shorter) but not a
sign that it is better than, say, a 50 line solution.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot
use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow
superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
