“why not just” is a standard phrase for saying what you’re proposing would be simple or come naturally if you try. Combined with the rest of the comment talking about straightforwardness and how little word count, and it does give off a somewhat combatitive vibe.
I agree with your suggestion and it is good to hear that you don’t intend it imply that it is simple, so maybe it would be worth editing the original comment to prevent miscommunication for people who haven’t read it yet. For the time being I’ve strong-agreed with your comment to save it from a negativity snowball effect.
