No, he went about his trial exactly how it should have been; from the perspective of someone who does not know the limitations. Linux cannot progress if it has a continual list of limitations that people are expected to know.
Would you be disappointed if your car's Stereo didn't work every second time you started the car, and you go back to the salesman and he tells you that 'you should have known that limitation before ordering'.
Linux will only progress by admitting bluntly to any shortcomings, and addressing them. Mark Shuttleworth seems to have his head firmly screwed on, unlike RMS.
