So, why didn't this change have to go through a proposal?  The original
change was rejected (which should show there is disagreement about
this), so such a change should not just be pushed without open
discussion.

If there is disagreement about this change, is there no recourse?  Or do
anaconda devs get to determine system policy now on their own?
