That's a funny comment. It does exactly the same thing twice: Please tell us where we didn't do too well, oh, and you are COMPLETELY WRONG because we did everything very well.
In context, it makes a lot of sense for him to do that. He's working for Signal now, so presumably is interested in how to improve the program, and he was a participant at the same time as Fluttershy, so he got an impression of the program as a participant.
No, it doesn't. Continuing with the charitable interpretation, wearing these two hats at the same time is... difficult. Either he, as an employee of Signal, is genuinely interested in feedback, or he as a participant thinks Fluttershy is all wrong and making shit up because it was perfect for andrewjho (here he, of course, committs the typical mind fallacy, but that's a minor issue at this point).
