If you know of a problem with a patch and or if you have a suggestion for
improving one, report the issue to the author of the patch.

Such general statments are not helping the project because noone can
fix a wide unspecific claim like that or even verify if the statement is true.

Which makes this just an ad hominem attack. Because it can very easily be
assigned to a human (who wrote all the patches) while making it impossible
to assign it to a technical issue that can be corrected or discussed.

Thanks
