One of the more disappointing things about ArchDaily is that some of the people who comment appear only only to capable of the most type of basic binary thinking whereby, should you not ike a design, then your motivation must surely be:

a) jealousy, or
b) some sort of nation-bashing (anti-China, anti-Islam, anti-UAE, etc).

Everything can be traced to some idea someone's already had or doing contemporaneously (in architecture or other areas). Easy to ding Foster on that score.
