Hey, Let me put it more clearly then, Muflone is the main staff member who moderates the AUR, I can assure you they know the rules inside out.
They have already explained their reasoning for the change. [1] There is literally nothing to discuss here, other than "I disagree with the change". If you have an issue with it you should probably bring it up with Muflone, not subject an entire mailing list to your personal preferences. In any case, this is not a hill worth dying on. You have an extra step which is clearly documented [2]. If you want to take your anger out on someone, maybe take it out on Black Magic Design which forced this change, Muflone has already concluded this a year ago [3], you are blaming the wrong person here. There is no stable URL to download the sources from and forcing people to run ambiguous scripts is a security threat, malicious PKGBUILD's have happened before, therefore you must always review what you are building which, as Muflone has pointed out, can not be done if there is a hacky workaround which is not possible for the average user to review. I am aware that davinci is much more advanced than a lot of the open source competition but if it is such a big deal, maybe give some open source alternatives a go, ones which actually give you both software freedom, and can be properly packaged and distributed, without upstream causing any issues, unlike resolve.
