Nah, I think it's an intentional troll.
Either that or somebody who's So naieve they honestly think that having different "text mode" and "binary mode" attributes of files (the cr/lf thing) can in some strange way actually improve a system. (Justifying it with the way printers work when sent an ascii text stream, despite the fact that most printers these days receive postscript or something equally distant from ascii after the printer drivers get done with it. And that text processing itself is, regrettably, moving to Unicode.)
