Just because he expressed himself poorly doesn't mean he doesn't have a valid point, Marcus. We shouldn't ignore the point just because it was poorly expressed.
I think there may be a cultural issue here. If Linus and Marcus worked for a European company, Linus would be open to a disiplinary offence of harrassment.
Luckily for Linus such things never happen in the far less bureaucratic US (where he is working) ;)
Marcus didn't ignore Linus' point. He simply asked to be treated with respect.
