I also know that they are deluged with work, they need to choose their priorities carefully, and they care very much. To date, they have met every requirement that the shifting sands at Apple and Google have thrown at them. They need to drop everything else to meet those deadlines, but they do it. Of course, that puts them behind on other things.

A frank discussion is fine, readers absolutely do need to know where traps may lie and what the current status of the product is. But sarcasm and scathing condemnation is neither acceptable nor productive.
