This is a really lucid response to the 500m loc nonsense

  I found it to be the opposite - no new information, no explanation. While the author certainly know more about programming than a NYT reporter he is simply guessing about the facts (actual LOC, leaker qualifications, employer and motives) and his explanation that comments and trailing brackets explain, even partially, the huge line count is ridiculous. Perhaps he (or someone else) should contact the NYT reporter to see if this mystery can be cleared up.
