The technical issues with PinePhone have been written in a straight forward, open and easy way to understand.

The community (that means users, distro makers, contributors of any type) needed to be made aware of the issue that their PinePhone can overheat, that it presently lacks all the safeguards that are necessary (and in one case one a safeguard was actually removed from the kernel). Without all those safeguards that control the response to conditions in the battery, that optimise the usage of the battery by devices to limit drawdown on the battery it's like rolling the dice and hoping that nothing bad happens. Until some work is done, that is the present situation of the PinePhone.

Each user needed to be aware and acknowledge that PinePhone is pretty much experimental hardware, with flaws included.

There is no "fairy tale", no "fearmongering" but clearly there is certainly some trolling/manipulation going on but it's not by the people that care what happens to the PinePhone and it's community of users. Being complacent and/or ignorant serves only as a distraction and undermines attention where it's needed.
