My point of view is: If there are people wanting to do the work, why

say "show us interested maintainers first" and potentially interested
packagers
say "show us the infrastructure first".
Okay...if you start with enough maintainers... how do you plan to
verify that you continue to have enough maintainers to hold a branch
open? Without a firm timeline on when to close a branch.. will we
ever see a branch close?
