Not sure, that would be up to DSA, but I can't imagine them turning down
somebody if the cd team allow them.

Exactly. Once you are a DD (be it uploading or not, it doesn't matter)
you gain voting rights for GRs, elections for the Debian Project Leader,
access to the debian-private@ ML which contains stuff that are -guess!-
private; nothing Earth-shattering, but still I prefer to make sure there
are reason people are joining.

Incidentally, looks like Jonathan was quicker than my lunch and already
assigned an AM to you ^^

Thank you. I've been pointed out that my messages were not quite
welcome, and indeed re-reading them I acknowledge I could have written
things differently to have them look less like some kind of passive
aggression.

As I mentioned, I do remember of your interactions in #-ftp. Your
determination to get that matter to an end was quite impressive (talking
also as a party that is still waiting on them for a different things for
years…)

See https://www.debian.org/vote/2010/vote_002 which is the relevant
GR that introduced non-uploading DD. Pretty much this is about
recognizing people that work on Debian but don't do packaging work,
therefore they don't need uploading rights to the archive.
The fact that you are asking this is not particularly inspiring to me,
but considering the surrounding contributions and how many people
supports you, I guess it's fine even if you don't know what you are
applying for, I suppose… :)

So you do dc17+dc18+dc19. According to previous cases, that's enough to
be a dd_nu!
At any rate, good luck with your NM process!
