Absolutely maintainer time, which is devoted to handling the work
done by _EVERYONE_, is more important than individual developer time.

Therefore as much work as possible is pushed down to the end nodes,
the developers, to make the top level maintainer's job easier.

You may be offended, but this is exactly how things are and have
been for a very long time.
