This means someone with tons of money can spam anyone repo, while the lower income people cannot raise as many PR or speak as much as the filthy rich.

The incentives are way off too. Now you have a financial incentive as a maintainter to throw out normally well meaning PR's as "bad".

  • ...which is balanced out by all the other incentives that have the maintainer currently contributing unpaid time & effort.

    • I don't think those are are valued as we think they should be. Hence this whole system to begin with.
