Your meaning is unclear

I believe they are attempting to criticise the author's writing style by invoking the stereotype of the neck-beard adorned ültra-geek who tips their fedora to a fair maiden and says, "Milady."

If this style of writing is “fancy” to them, they’re going to have an aneurysm reading novels written in the, say, early 1900s.

But on the other hand, given that fedoras are (within that context) the most tip-friendly hat, wouldn’t that mean that the author is a natural writer?...
