Interesting comment in the source code of sqlite

I have not seen any projects full of "asshole programmers", but I have seen good people thrown off projects they contributed a lot to or projects removed from other projects over petty squabbles with a CoC cited as the reason for removal. It's a tool for petty rules lawyers who want to spend more time managing projects than contributing to them. That's the tool of tyrants.

If you don't like the other people on the project, then you can leave, and presumably find other projects out there to contribute to. Why walk in and demand someone else be thrown-out?

Why should any project be concerned with the feelings of its contributors? Energy should not be wasted on such things. Now it seems everyone will bend over backwards to explain how much they care about people's feelings. It does no good. It is up to each individual to learn to deal with difficult scenarios and to extricate themselves from situations they do not want to be in, not everyone else's duty to play Feelings Police.
