I dunno. I may be really off the mark but it sounds to me like criticism of his work is getting to Sensei--I don't think this is a bad thing. Every artist has to question whether or not he's writing from an internal set of standards or for an audience's expected set of standards (maybe this is what he means by "values?") I believe that art is a communication between both, but eh, every artist is super sensitive about that communication, especially when it's broken.
