No.
If you felt the changes were interfering with your work, then you can
always apply a reversion to your local working copy to continue your
work. Then, when Hyrum got back online, he could figure out what he
did and how to move it forward.
For most people, his changes may have had no impact at all.

Yup. And you could have done that entirely locally. You could have
*worked with* Hyrum to get through this.
In short, your behavior was disrespectful and anti-social.
