Are some guitarists sometimes the tiniest bit whiny...?

Having heard more than a share of moan-y comments like, "Mosrites' necks are too narrow, Les Pauls' necks are like baseball bats, Strats go out of tune when you use the twang bar, Teles hum when you use the neck pickup..."
For whatever reason (having been at a big-box music store, later playing the Mk I with its "little" neck, then taking a long walk with the dog), pondering this topic allowed the query to surface, are sometimes, some guitarists the tiniest bit whiny about their or some particular guitars' flaws?
As a corollary, there are no super-wide or long mandolins, violin or violas and some pretty big folks play them.
Any thoughts?
