And this isn't ad-hominem for lack of factual critic. The personal stuff _is_ the reason. How else do you call out someone driven by ego without mentioning them and their ego?

The guy is only ego. There is no substance to attack.

this is, because it can mean so much stuff that you can't really tell you are calling out their "ego" or just trolling.

Until you can at least open yourself to the possibility that there are better more inviting ways to talk to people online, you'd think this is just the natural way people talk online, but I'd say it's not. It's just an aesthetic choice.
