Let's be honest: you are upset because you have sometime committed to saying the GIL is a huge deal and you feel insulted by anyone saying it isn't, which is why you are using emotionally loaded words like 'petulant' and 'childish' and 'ignorant' and 'bad'.

Thank you for telling me what was inside my head. I was simply unaware of my emotional state and motivations until you helpfully pointed them out to me.

But seriously, "good programmers don't use threads (much)" is your counter-argument?
