None of us measured this. Personally, I write code for the people. The good and the bad. It's very rare when someone is abusive (it happens). I'd say it's one in 1000. The ratio of people who disagree is much larger. The challenge is in creating a big tent environment that listens to everyone.
This sort of "don't like it so get the fuck out" attitude is poisonous. It might not seem so in the short term but it is in the long term. As a maintainer you're a politician, not just a coder. I need to be able to take some reasonable level of abuse and stupidity. Because occasionally I'm the stupid person who didn't "get it".
