Yeah, I think if you're that bad in your early 20s, you no longer get the sympathy head-pat of being too young to criticize. I don't think that anyone should flame them, I wouldn't reject (I just don't do that), but like: this fic is not good. It's not actively malicious, but it is terrible and I think we should be allowed to say it is terrible.

Yes, it's terrible. I wouldn't comment and say that, but I think their lack of comments or kudos are telling them that. Hopefully they see it as room for improvement if anything.

I don't blame the recip for rejecting it, though I probably would have done it after the Yuletide rush when maybe the writer isn't paying attention anymore.
