But threatening to leave if you don't get your way? That's excellent? 
Making ultimatums, that's respect?

How is this anything other than a statement of the case?

If we have packages in the distro for which we cannot find enough people 
to test outside of the package maintainer then my question is - who is 
using it? If so few people are using it then aren't we just wasting 
bandwidth and diskspace having it around?
