To me the title suggests the dev made the DLSS design intentionally worse, to generate controversy and now he is happy with the result.

The text actually explains that the devs just heard about the DLSS 5 alterations and were happy people loved the old design so much. Nothing controversial from him, not even intentional new designs.

Sounds like you got it right at first glance and I didn't. However, often these titles are intentionally misleading as to generate more outrage "you should be mad at the developer for creating controversies and being smug about the outcry". Not a fan of those manipulative tactics in modern journalism or whatever it calls itself currently.

Oh, it sounds like you're missing the context that Nvidia used games to advertise DLSS 5 alterations without informing those games' devs beforehand. In other words, it's impossible for the dev to have been involved with the DLSS version. I suppose missing that critical detail makes some of the title backlash make sense.

I didn't know it was about that Nvidia presentation. I just didn't connect this article to it, but I know of the Nvidia presentation. That explains why this alternative interpretation didn't cross your mind.
