alt Hacker News>Call a spade a spade, the rewrite was poorly justified
In what world do you think they have to justify a rewrite to anyone outside their company? Bizarre mentality.

Exactly. The people criticizing the rewrite for the most part are just trying to exert power from the wrong end of a parasocial relationship. And then they get upset when no-one takes them seriously.
They didn't have to but Anthropic chose to open their mouth and announce their "reasons" for the rewrite. Don't blame anyone but Anthropic for this, they didn't have to try to justify it, but they decided to anyway.
