How dare you suggest we ask our users

One of the funniest emails I read this week:
Date: Fri, 05 Feb 2021 10:16:49 +0200
From: Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org>
Newsgroups: gmane.emacs.devel
Subject: Re: [External] : Re: Concern about new binding.
Message-ID: <83v9b7orny.fsf@gnu.org>
…
In all the 30 years of my uninterrupted active involvement with Emacs
development, I don't remember even a single instance of polling users
before making user-visible decisions. (I may have missed one or two,
but it cannot be more than that.) I'm astonished to hear such demands
now. If this is indeed what's required from Emacs maintainers, I will
seriously consider resigning, because I cannot in good faith support
such ridiculous development practices, let alone such level of
mistrust towards my and Lars's experience and knowhow.
