" if they don't react, then we don't have to try harder" It is maintainers' responsibility to read emails sent to their address set in their packages. I have spent enough time on RC bugs and MIA cases to have a mental one week timeout on packaging related emails.
It is simple: If you are not there to answer in a week, your possible opinion is ignored (unless you are on VAC which has been announced on private@). I don't have infinite time to be spent of unreachable maintainers, but if you would like to ask them feel free to ping them again.
