Actually, he isn't. In post he implies that "many" players asked for years for group Space Combat mode. Well, I've never seen any of that "many". What I have seen, is that GSF community is much more bigger and active than community of Space Combat fans.
Yes, I respect his opinion and I'm definitely not saying that GSF is great - actually, it in the worst state now than ever. But there is absolutely no need in exaggeration and statements like "many of us think, that GSF sucks". He clearly lacks authority to make such statements.
