I'm afraid your conclusion is incorrect and I would kindly appreciate it if you didn't further misconstrue what I have said with regards to Tim Burton in order to make your argument sound correct.
Thanks
Whatever dude. You know what you wrote:
This AP seems too commercial and too Disney's Alice in Wonderland.
The names are an absolute joke and they are wasting an opportunity to create a very dark, very gritty, very insane, and very scary AP. I like things that frighten children, not cause them to giggle and want to watch them on television. It appears they are trying too hard and if you don't know what you are doing then it will just turn out lame and goofy.
This adventure needs to be written by basically Lovecraft, Lumley, King, and just a dash of Tim Burton. The underdark is an alien and scary place. Derro are murderous, evil, and insane lunatics who should be feared by even the hardiest adventurer. I want scary like a cross between Stephen King's "It" and Call of Cthulhu. We have a mixture of some of the evilest, alien, and most insane creatures mixed into a dark and alien realm where few dare go and trying to add humour does it no justice at all.

The contradictions in that post are massive. Sure, you didn't INTEND for that connection of Burton + Alice in Wonderland, but hey, it's there. It's been pointed out. If you say something dumb, and everyone goes "hey, that was dumb!" you can't turn around and say "no, I didn't mean it like that. You guys are the dumb ones!"
And instead of saying "whoops, my bad", you doubled down and insisted everyone was wrong about this point, and kept pushing it.
Ultimately, IT DOESN'T MATTER. This one's not for you. Sounds great. But calling WotC "Appalling" for doing so? For, as Morrus says, insisting it's your way or the highway? That's lame, and I feel perfectly fine for calling you out on it.
