No, you were not being rude. All you were doing is stating an honest opinion and you did it in a very considerate way.
Basically, even though I said this a post ago, I like to start out with a very simple standing pose when I start out with a sprite sheet. That way, I can show it to the more experienced spriters to see if I need to make any tweaks to the basic structure before I can move onto the animation process. The pose that Iocus used, while very amazing and a typical pose I could see E-Man doing, isn't the kind of pose it would start out with because it is a little more complex than a simple neutral standing pose. As a result, it becomes more difficult for me to create new poses from how the sprite is currently posed.
