peanut gallery  n. 
1. The hindmost or uppermost section of seating in a theater balcony,
where the seats are cheapest. 
2. A group of people whose opinions are considered unimportant

Of course, it's expected that any technical project is going to have
internal discussions that penetrate more deeply into technical matters

However, that doesn't mean that the insights of outsiders should be
