Your posts here seem of the “just asking questions” variety—no substance other than being counterculture. Do you have any proof or resemblance of any logical reason to think this?
It's a gentle joke, it happened, that's TFA. (ex. see the other threads re: it started from the JPEG XL repo).
I use asking questions as a way to keep contentious discussions on track without being boorish. And you're right, it can easily be smarmy instead of Socratic without tone, a la the classic internet sarcasm problem.
Gentle note: I only asked one question, and only in the post you replied to.
