Knee-jerk threads result in people misunderstanding the core issues at the root of a problem. You and I both agree that "morphine nuts" were not the problem here, and implementing some specific kneejerk solution of "nerf morphine nuts" wouldn't actually be the right fix.
Yes, it was dismissive. No, it isn't telling people to "git gud." This thread missed the core problem behind the frustration because it was more concerned with being posted as quickly as possible rather than examining the game design behind the frustration. It would have been much more effective if more care had been taken in exploring the second half of the post, about force feeding, and less with reacting to specific inciting gameplay.
