You have to read thousands of words past Executive Summary to see what’s going on, which eventually turns out to be the usual left-right culture war (aargh…) The worst is that this actual theme is hidden in the links and is never directly mentioned in the letter.
The letter also stops short of taking side between left and right although the links clarify it’s obviously the former.
It instead accuses the NixOS platform of having “systemic” problems in “leadership,” “structure,” etc. etc. I was like, “just say it, you simply believe in a more progressive NixOS team.”
They only say “bad behaviors,” then define bad behaviors with abstract terms using one paragraph. That’s shortly after the text uses the metaphor of “missing stairs in a staircase”, without explaining what these missing stairs are about.
So abstract, without examples for all this depth of abstraction.
They go on with their “bad behavior”, bad behavior, bad behavior, and finally there are links. If you click on the first (?) of these links, you finally see that this one example was about minority representation in NixOS development. In the rest, you see examples of the usual conservative vs. progressive culture war.
Someone has to rewrite this…

There are proper ways to do this.
