So basically, what you are saying is that, totally regardless of how
much an architecture is actually used in the field, if the architecture
maintainer for it doesn't also do your work and contribute to every
single of your pet projects, or if everybody is like you, every single
other subsystem in the kernel, then that architecture is irrelevant for
technical considerations and choices regarding any design decision made
to the core kernel ?

Sorry Ingo, but that's just arrogant bullshit. So stop trying to win
this useless argument, all you manage to do is anger people and make us
even less willing to actually work with you.

Cheers,
Ben.
