If you don't like it, talk to FESCo or write something up for FPC to look
at.  If you think that reviewers can't be bothered to look for places that
a package has a bug, packagers don't have time to fix bugs reported against
their packages, and you don't have enough faith that FESCo or the FPC will
find your argument that "cosmetic issues in an area which has little
practical importance" are valid, then really, there's nothing else I can do
to help.
