It reads to me like English isn't his first language. Either way the complexities of open source licensing are something a lot of people don't understand.
Ironic this comment reads like you didn’t even grok the basics of the issue if you think open source licensing is the source of confusion.
As stated multiple times in the linked discussion: the licensing of the open source code is not the issue. It's the use of the trademark, and making their fork look like an officially endorsed one.
