Reference request: any 20th century German critiques of Bourbaki?

Vladimir Arnold is known, among other things, for offering a scathing critique of Bourbaki:

The Arnold – Serre debate

Recently I've been reading some Nietzsche, and he chides some Germans in the wake of the Franco-Prussian War for triumphantly proclaiming that the English and French might have civilization, but we have culture.

Inspired by reading this, I'm wondering if there are any critiques by 20th century German mathematicians of Bourbaki out there?
