"weeny-osis" sounds kinda, well, weeny-osis itself LOL! While I think BT's reaction is a bit extreme I can't in all good faith fault him. I may be wrong but my reading of his issue is this: Whether because of inadequate hardware, insufficient funds or an unwillingness to change their OS many Bryce users will be unable to update to B6 if it no longer supports the Win98/ME series. Now such situations are by no means uncommon with newer software editions. But BT contends that there is no particularly good reason why B6 should not support these older systems. If he is correct then it follows that many users will be needlessly left in the cold. I do not know how he arrives at the figure but he places this at about 40% of current users. As a longtime avid Bryce fan he considers this remarkably unfair to a loyal user base. If B6 will indeed no longer support these older systems then he plans to close his site in an act of personal protest. Whether you agree or disagree with him he is at the very least a man of conviction. It's his site and his conviction so surely he may do as he pleases. Personally I would say this is a bit beyond "weeny-osis".
