I am the author, I fixed them myself.
It was my first PR to Mame, with no guidance on the undocumented PR process whatsoever; so I wrongly thought that resolving the comments was the way to go when someone handed me what it looked like an optional suggestion. My bad.

My bad as well. Also, please, please, please, fix your stereotypes. Having spent basically all my professional life in the US, it should be American machismo. At the end the PR was merged, with big help and lots of suggestions from Vas while you were commenting from the side.

Before my PR sound was not working. When I proposed my changes, sound was working although not up to undocumented coding standard. Doesn't qualify as lousy job, right?
I cannot comment on other people's behavior or intentions.
My currency is "show me your code/work/contribution".
Wrt, but not directed to Vas:

P.S. still working on it, trying to address the last issue standing between current status and having this marked as complete. https://github.com/mamedev/mame/pull/12180
You can see how much effort, research, pride and time I put in this small PR project.
