I don't think I screwed up those rules, and I don't think this rule
will change the fact that people may have a different subjective
opinion about what is trivial. You can say 5 lines is max, and believe
this arbitrary definition has no sense. Instead, the patch already
goes to 2 lists for post-review, and I would prefer people stick to
technical conversations rather than community guidelines when there is
no need for it and it doesn't noticeably improve the project for the
rest of the people outside this very tiny contributor community.
