Take it for what you want. It's yours to disparage. Consider, though, that I'm factually explaining the real-life result of resistance to static instrumentation. It's not entirely detached, I'll admit, but consider that it remained on-topic and entirely respectful of all parties involved. I've enjoyed very positive relationships with all those individuals and continue to hold them with high regard. They took the decisions they thought were best at the time, and I can only respect them for having acted as responsibly as they found relevant for their respective organizations. I don't agree with it, but that's life. It was just important to me to point out to the casual reader the source of a lot of the fud than can be found on ltt -- i.e. lots of it is marketing. For sure ltt initially got a lot of things wrong, but the progress of kernel tracing overall would have been much better had the naysayers actually chose to understand the problem instead of stonewalling the efforts being invested.
