I know exactly where Nedko is coming from. He has invested a lot of effort into making huge strides in developing his vision for session management. I didn't realise that Ladi was being left in the cold by the wider community. It's not easy to find motivation for continuing development when a large subset of your ideas are received as fundamentally flawed because of the core design choice that enables their existence. In addition being continually dragged into a heated debate or having flames directed your way by the people who you are trying to get constructive feedback from can be extremely tiring, stressful and depressing. Not to mention the trolls or people feeling trollish at a given moment like to direct their attacks at the people who are taking the most heat which can be an additional source of annoyance. The same issues that Nedko sees with the anti reaction for his work is the same thing that the PA developers receive and verges on the same thing the OSS developers have received in the past. Hence there is usually a conflict and heated argument when these parties contribute to discussions in the wider community. The one thing that cannot be denied is that each of the above has technical merits that the core developers have decided are worth "compromising" on or developing around to achieve their goals. I personally see Nedkos work as extremely valuable so I will be making some time for testing and feedback.
