Bollocks, they engage everybody on the topic, so far as I can see. There aren't enough hours in the day for me to help them establish the kind of reputation as 4E defenders, apologists and shock troops that I associate with some of these names.Because you've engaged them before, and the same circumstances developed then. That doesn't change anything. It's pretty clear, for instance, that Mustrum_Ridcully was unsurprised by your "tactics".
I don't deny that I have a reputation too, but it's not all me with the bag full of fanaticism, much as you may wish it was.
