This seems well-reasoned and clear. The author is pissed off, but one can see why if what the article presents is accurate.
But I personally don't know either the code base or the material ("terminals") well enough to be potentially able to confirm or refute it.
It'd be great to see some refutation of this article or a defense of the original changes so we could make up our minds.

It's not even bush league. Once they graduate from high school or college and write software for a living (if they get there), their standards will improve. Of course, at that point they don't really have time to contribute to OSS anymore. So it's all n00bs, all the time.
