It's not about "consensus". the /debian/ salsa space, as opposed to the
old alioth's collab-maint space, has very clear rules about it, that
were clearly announced when it was created.
https://wiki.debian.org/Salsa/Doc#Collaborative_Maintenance:_.22Debian.22_group
Direct commits to repositories in the Debian group by any Debian
developer are implicitly welcome. No pre-commit coordination (e.g.
merge-request or mail) is expected.
Nothing is said upload uploading, for which the normal NMU rules should
be followed.
Having said that, I believe everybody prefers some kind of coordination
(MRs!) before pushing, but since that's the /debian/ group we are
talking about, pushing directly after an MR went unanswered is alright.

Which carried quite a bunch of security issues with that (DMs weren't
special about it, it was a general "non-DDs").
