I agree. His presumptive and basically put down remark wasn't necessary and I found it insulting too especially since your comments were totally spot on.The recreational pilots have always been able to fly at night (with the required anti-collision lights). The Part 107 pilots used to have to apply for a nigh waiver. Illogical and backwards, but now fixed.
Night flight rules
I think it's best to know what you're talking about before insulting people. Either way, insults are not appreciated.
