You are not paying attention at all.

Junio did *not* use my social manners as a reason to block the
graduation, nor the quality of the code, he used a *TECHNICAL* reason.

Prior to his decision there were no complaints about my "manners" since
I returned. It was his *TECHNICAL* decision that triggered this.

Junio never explained his *TECHNICAL* reason, and Michael Haggerty
simply said "there are good technical arguments for and against
moving git-remote-hg out of contrib", that was all his explanation for
the *TECHNICAL* reason.

You, and other people, are using the behavior I displayed *AFTER* Junio
made his *TECHNICAL* decision as the cause for his decision not to
graduate. That's a wrong direction fallacy.
