I would say that in accordance with rule number one your request is OK but in future please keep in mind the first sentence of rule 10. It is quite unnecessary to use language like: "we frown upon" when asking for a change as you do.
If you are going to be this sensitive then you are going to have a large problem here. AdminJar was in no way disrespectful.
Others will, occasionally, cross the line to greater and lessor extents in the heat of discussion. It would take a very, very much greater hint of disrespect to trigger an admins involvement than one could possibly construe from AJ's comment.
Generally, if you ignore minor transgressions and work extra hard to be respectful yourself then the majority here will be respectful in return.
