You had no business defending your broken business model and fundamental misunderstanding of fullrbf in the first place, so lets not pretend that these issues are at all related.
There is an issue here, but it's not your misunderstanding of the security of 0 conf transactions or node relay policy or the inclusion of settings and configuration option enabling users to configure their relay policies as they please - and as they already could with more effort or alternative clients. Lets not conflate your misunderstanding with the politics of Bitcoin Core development.
He had every right to object to a disruption of existing and appropriately risk-managed 0conf use cases.
Especially so when core contributors were also projecting an explicit desire to turn the default to ON in a future release on the back of its introduction.
I disagree that this isn’t related. Both situations are examples of pushing aside well articulated critique to achieve a false sense of consensus.
