Developers might not want to work for a project any longer
that engages in behaviour that is perceived as being at odds
with why they chose to work for that project in the first

Looking at the proposed metrics
(https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/blob/master/f/notes/metrics-to-collect.md),

processed if they (objectively) only affect x % of all in-
stallations.
