"Subjective" and "emotional" aren't synonyms.  Some of his points are
indeed subjective (that is, based on opinion rather than fact), but
they appear to me based on technical concerns rather than based on
emotion.

You are certainly welcome to give counterarguments to his points.  Do
you have a different interpretation of the prior discussions he
mentions?  Do you disagree about the level of importance of
suggestions that haven't been discussed?  Can you point out which
warnings point to problems in groff documentation that should be
addressed rather than design differences between the two projects?
Dismissing Ingo's points as subjective or emotional isn't really
addressing their substance.
