You wouldn't have been assuming leadership of the project in any formal
manner. However, you've made it clear that you think that the DPL team
needs leadership - you had the opportunity to provide coordination and
make sure that things got done, but chose not to.

But surely the point of a team is for people to be able to pick up the
slack if someone can't cope? If you believe that the DPL should still be
a single point of failure, what's the point in electing you?
