I think it's reasonable to call "bullying" hyperbole here.

A not inconsequential subset of people seem to strongly feel that divergence between compilers (including flags) that could result in a gcc-rs dialect and a rustc dialect, would be bad.

My understanding is that the gcc-rs people have been very receptive to that viewpoint, and so there was no strong-arming, steamrolling, or bullying, actual or necessary.
