Quite obviously, that is what it usually means when people say something like "That's a shame". Just a way to express one's disappointment. We are living our own era, and daily expressions should be understood within context. Go back 200 years, the same expression could well put one down to the bottom of the society, but not nowadays. The fact is that you had every reason to feel disappointed. The monk started this sub-thread gave a reply that was full of pointless anger (only because someone claimed that his module was slow, which is a fact) and baseless false confidence, and that was quickly revealed in subsequent posts of his in the same thread.
What a shame!
