However, in this instance I concur with HN and what seems to be the majority of the users here. Lunduke produces no actionable suggestions and stimulates no important discourse. He deliberately avoids due-diligence, ignores integral details and is justifiably dismissed as a second-class source in pretty much every domain of computer science.
If you're still willing to make a case for him, please do. It's just not the kind of politicized blogslop that HN typically rewards, regardless of what your politics are.
