I guess it comes down to unnecessary roughness.
Sure, he was out of line, but AJ had already explained

It's hard to quantify, but partly as a result of your comment, he seems to
be actively telling folks that the Wine community is rude and unpleasant.

When I was doing lots of interviews at a tech company,
the idea was that even if we were going to reject a candidate,
we would still treat him well, and try to give him a good impression
of the company.  The thinking was that even if we didn't want him,
we might be interested in his friends.   The same idea might
apply here.
