Can you expand on what additional information you believe you're providing when you "explain" a downvote in this way, rather than just downvoting silently?

From where I sit the "explanation" seems purely an attempt to shame Viliam_Bur in public, and by extension to shame anyone who might agree with that quote or think it at all compelling. Is that what you have in mind?
