You have no idea what you're talking about. Which isn't surprising,
considering you're apparently not a developer, maintainer, applicant or
any other sort of regular contributor to Debian. In future, if you've

by doing the Usenet troll thing of posting authoritative statements that
are complete wrong in order to get other people to correct you.
