I doubt this would be an accurate description of all Drupal developers.
 The Drupal developers I've met have been very intelligent; most don't
know much about SQL database, but then I know zero JavaScript so we're even.

The answer to this is to be educational and not confrontational.  And
submit patches ... to a current development version and not an old version.

Again, the evidence is against you.

In a loadable module, sure.  Patches?

There's other stuff as well.  Also, see the updates people have made to
your list.

Well, I don't use Windows either.  So that's a pretty weak argument with
me ...
