Well, I am probably one of these fans that you are talking about. I neither agreed, neither disagreed. I stayed quiet because he is as irrelevant to the Amiga as he have been in the last 27 years. He is not a part of the original Amiga team, what he designed at Commodore was mostly for the 8-bits (C-128) and the for the Amiga stuff - well people outside Commodore created better CPU cards etc.
Of course you are free to disagree or agree with me, but this is my point of view.
You forgot to add "completely clueless" to "my point of view". This is not something you could simply agree or disagree with: get your facts straight or STFU, dude. He made ####LOADS of Amiga-related HW engineering at Commodore.
