> But frankly, this research group should have been mostly apologizing for the way they communicated with the kernel group.
???
They submitted patches to the kernel based on a static analysis tool they were building, and then Greg started accusing them of malice, and banned the entire univirsity - how is it the research group that communicated poorly?
Why would they not "do this again" ? They were trying to contribute to the kernel, whether their patches were low quality or not, there was no malice from this group.
They haven't used any social pressure - on the contrary, it's Greg who began this inflammatory, overblown reaction to ban an entire university based on previous research done under non university affiliated email addresses.
Greg made numerous false accusations against Aditya.
edit: Oh and to everyone who I'm sure will just downvote,

Here's kernel maintainers explaining this mess that Greg made. People are conflating multiple unrelated events because Greg did.
