(In reply to Mathieu Arnold from comment #3)
Yes, this can happen. I hope and guess that this would not be the 'new normal'.

Is there an easy way to detect this case ? In which cases would it be
'very-bad', in which cases would it be 'unfortunate' ? How many times
would the maintainer 'not care' ?

Do I understand you correctly that you suspect that it would undermine
the role of the maintainer, so that in the long run being a maintainer
would not be seen as a useful role ?

On the other hand, do we really have the problem that we move too fast ?
To be honest, some DEPRECATE and EXPIRE runs in the past ran into opposition...
