The "author" refers to the author of the "proposed log message" of
the patch in question, i.e. me in this case.  The author of the
patch under discussion thinks it is, so asking "Is it?", implying
you do not agree, is nothing but a rhetorical question, and doing
so, without explaining why, wastes time on both sides.

I am not interested in getting involved in unproductive arguments
with you (or with anybody else for that matter).  I've been giving
you benefit of doubt, but I'll go back to refrain from responding to
your message, unless it is a patch that I can say "I agree 100% with
what the proposed log message says and what the patch text does,
looking great, thanks. Will queue." to, which has been my default
stance.

Past experience tells me that to any review other than "100% good",
I would see responses in an unpleasant and hostile manner.  Anything
that asks clarification for something unclear in your patch, or
suggests alternatives or improvements.  And it led to unproductive
and irritating waste of time number of times, and eventually you
were asked to leave the development community for at least a few
times.
