Well, but maintainers *did*, back before we had autopush.

You might just as well say "a maintainer would not normally enable
autopush if they're submitting an update that depends on another update
that is not yet stable", because they shouldn't. But they do. All the
time.

Maintainers get stuff wrong sometimes. We've tweaked the mechanisms in
various ways for more than a decade and that hasn't stopped happening
yet. Even if we changed Bodhi to precisely your preferred
configuration, I'm gonna posit that maintainers would still manage to
get stuff wrong sometimes. :)
