Well, I guess it's obvious that I don't agree with you.

I revoked the "approval" to prevent this package to cause damage from Fedora,
because I think the reviewer missed how mis-designed and how harmful this
package is.

Reasonable reviewers would have waited for such discussions to have settled and
would not have "approved" this package. Unfortunately, this didn't happen here.

I therefore had to resort to "revoking" as "ultimate ratio".
