    Also a reply so you can understand a bit how things typically work in FOSS projects.

    There’s a democracy in healthy ones, but ultimately, there has to be someone at the top that has the final say. The project maintainer/main contributor. Someone who gets to be the tie breaker, or absolutely final authority on what does or doesn’t make it into a patch/version/etc.

    This is extremely common, and generally healthy, in these kinds of ecosystems.

        It has worked successfully for linux for decades and other FOSS projects like Python have successfully followed the same model.
