The post was about Android support. Why do you care how much the ICO did or didn't make?
Let's say it made money/ETH--and even if a program in the language can print out a message saying it did. What does this have to do with your assessment of the technology, or its completeness or incompleteness?
I don't feel like looking up why you think that's a real comment. Just sounds like "Paid for by the council of American Samoans who don't bother actually reading or watching anything because they're probably illiterate".
I think he's probably smart enough to have thought of this aspect...!
But you are of course absolutely right. And it's not a bad idea to add PWM sounds, and would be an absolutely interesting thing to see someone do for a project.
Point is it's more about a method or a way of thinking than a "practical" proposal. It's about learning how to think. If you don't like that line of thinking, you might also critique the Long Now Clock for its pointlessness. Maybe valid.
But I've used this even as a programming puzzle; to get people to write encoders and decoders for it. It's kind of more in that spirit than anything.
