I believe you are projecting your emotions onto others and trying to find justification for certain behaviors you don’t agree with. However, not every workplace has the same dynamics. I work in a large corporation, and I don’t see the kind of issues you’re experiencing. Moreover, behavior like yours is considered negative in my environment.

I can't say that these behaviors are predatory, but author appears like toxic person with some god syndrome.

Overtime can be predatory, but please don't call kindness, teamwork, or simple help as prey trait

For me it's biggest advantage of.NET that it have "just works" defaults. I prefer it from Java ecosystem when you have many options and each every one has basic problems with even the setup.
