ICLR is open to public review and he is posted one supported by technical arguments. Are you aware that this is part of the "scientific process" that is accepted by the conference? The authors still have an opportunity to give a response, and then based on that it is the responsibility of the reviewers and the committee members to have an in-depth discussion on the merits of the paper.

If you want to defend the authors, then maybe consider doing that on the technical aspects?

The scientific process is typically undertaken within context of scientific venues. The authors can not be realistically expected to respond to ICLR and arm chair ml geniuses on the internet. Scientific venues aim to provide minimally acceptable quality control.
