I've had the same reactions by people who pass judgment while also admitting that they don't know the first thing about keeping snakes. That's just ignorance on stilts if you ask me...

The average joe out there tends to anthromorphize (apply human needs, emotions, and characteristics) their animals, resulting in them to perceive locking a snake in a dark tub all alone as cruel; when on the contrary, this setup does a lot to meet the animals' basic needs for security along with temperature and humidity.
