I've worked on a lot of projects where the tone was at the opposite extreme and everyone understated their points to avoid conflict to the point that it was impossible for me to tell whether whatever I was hearing actually mattered unless it was coming from another programmer or someone I knew well enough. That is far worse than than the occasional flame. There's a happy medium, but if you're going to lean one way leaning towards ranting at least means you can draw attention to the important stuff.
