I can see this as valid, but not valid in how it's been described by Dan.
The key issue presented here is Fractally team isn't working on the whitepaper, and negatively valuing (by on-chain vote, look at John Williamson's vote on the last meeting) actual work on what's stated in the whitepaper.
I delivered code as stated in the whitepaper and the team valued non-provable code that isn't in the white paper. Raising ethical concerns for John, and the team.
