Same reason you posted that comment: it's sometimes interesting to discuss a thing even if you dislike the thing.

I'm fine with the logic of discussing it here but can't fathom why Tim Bray thought this would be a useful post given his own objectives.

I doubt a post saying it was so boring he was unable to finish reading the page about himself is going to bring in many readers.

That's kind of been my impression too. Not that it's terribly biased or anything but just rather boring to read.
