I guess you could choose to read it that way, but I’m not sure why you would—seems like an assumption of bad faith that doesn’t feel justified to me, especially on LW.
Saying “I don’t like that you invited this person, and I think you shouldn’t have, and I think you should reverse that decision, and it’s on you if you ignore my advice and it goes poorly” doesn’t seem like it’s in bad faith to me. Caving to such bids seems like it would invite more such bids in the future, but I don’t think making such bids is particularly norm-breaking.

This seems a bit speculative to me. If OP didn’t believe that would the post have looked any different?
