Unfortunatly, I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying.
The point of NM is to evaluate whether people are capable of
positively contributing to Debian and are going to do so. How this is
done exactly depends on the AM, but that's what the NM procedure does.
If you're arguing that we can't evaluate it with 100% certainty, I
agree. My goal as an AM is to do the best job I can.
If you're saying that it can't be evaluated at all, I disagree.
People's technical skill and previous contributions to Debian all
point to the likelihood of their future contribution.
