If you are going to put up hurdles and give us extra jobs, you need to start paying us.
Alternatively, we can accept that there will be fewer libraries because some volunteers won't do the extra work for free. Arguably there are too many libraries already so maybe a contraction in the size of the ecosystem would be a net positive.
Note: the bad guys are incentivized to work for free, this would increase the problem considerably.
The npm left-pad incident would be the classic argument against this position
