Wrong, I absolutely hate posting to any Debian list atm, not only because my point of view is too often ignored by those that should be most interested, but due to how DMARC settings mean that I'll get loads of reports due to how DMARC works with Debian lists at this time. So, if I post to Debian it is not to troll and I would never have that intent; it is to allow a possible alternative view that is valid to be able to be aired to those that really do matter... the users (collectively), of Debian -- in this case though, it is being limited to those in the one particular list that is debian-devel ... so it may mostly fall on deaf ears. It's no good preaching to the converted, unless there is a conscious and a will to do better. I hope that out of this will come a more reasonable method to properly determine the best way forward for the Debian project, which effects Devuan that I have chosen to move forward with. Devuan gives back to Debian and that is great, but it cannot be fully self supported, it needs to rely upon Debian -- so what Debian does, by whatever process, has direct relevance not only to those users of Debian (far more than the DDs here), but also to every other distro that also relies upon Debian to be a good upstanding distro that has continuing value to entire community [for Debian and beyond, go Buz Lightyear] and not just the DDs themselves.
