I think what you have to ask yourself is, what would I think if the editor my publisher pays for gave me that as feedback? From what I read over at Making Light, it's milder (at least in its expression) than the average editor would put it (note: I haven't actually read the chapter yet, so I don't have an opinion on the quality of it). I think it was Neil Gaiman who remarked recently that he routinely accepts 90% of the changes his editor recommends, even if he thinks they're superfluous, exactly because as an author you are always too close to your work to evaluate it dispassionately.
Oh, and re: starting the next part of SC: I can only say 'yay!', although I'm less happy about the 'irritated enough to'.
