Then direct that hostility in a positive way and help new folks and others.
 You can derive powerful motivation from negative things if you chose the
positive path.
When you see someone frustrated, help. You will both feel better. A pretty
simple psychological test. Repeat it and see. It does work and is a
worthwhile investment.   

Most plant forums and list all discuss adding PO4 these days. Something
folks never thought would ever be common place a decade ago along with
higher traces, CO2, K+, NO3, lighting. 

As did I compared to those before me...........the way you pay back those
folks is by helping others in this hobby or whatever it is that you do in
life. Help the poor newbie, help the sick planted tanks, fight for plant
justice and the planted tanks shall inherit the earth.
