That wasn't a wall of text. A wall of text is endless stream of words with no line breaks, paragraphs, etc. And what he said hit home. And from your reply to him, it doesn't seem like you have any real rebuttal to him, so you make up a fake issue saying it is a wall of text and wont reply to him. Equivalent to putting your hands over your ears yelling you can't hear what he says. I honestly don't think anyone should bother replying to you if you can't be bothered to read a well written reply because it is counter to your views, and instead say you will never reply to them.
I'd rather see this unnecessary change reverted personally.
