Learning what?

It seems folks proposing this madness failed to learn from how Fedora 
Legacy failed.

I was there.  During the last year or so (when the updates were still 
being cranked out regularly), there were about 2 or 3 folks who would 
review proposed updates or try to put any significant work in it.

Unless we get a list of 20 maintainer-capable people willing to spend 
time in doing security fixes (for _any_ package, not just their pet 
packages), we shouldn't even be wasting time discussing this.

Is there such a list?  If you wish to continue with this, I'd suggest 
you start collecting one at a wiki somewhere, where people could sign 
and tell the terms under which they would be interested in 
contributing.
