The same reason we use mailing lists for kernel development at all instead of
just sending patches directly to the MAINTAINERS.

Ah, the classic "patches welcome".

Unfortunately, I don't think that can work very well for scripts that are only
ever used by at most two people -- you and Sasha.  Many even just by you,
apparently, as I see your name, email address, home directory, etc. hardcoded in
the scripts.  (BTW, where are the scripts Sasha uses for AUTOSEL?)
