Strawman. The rationale I presented argues for creating a
severity to use for violations of policy. The point was to allow for
violations of must directives to be flagged as problems in
themselves, potentially release critical, thereby acknowledging the
importance of Debian policy for packages (IMHO policy is the major
difference between the solidity of a Debian machine vs other
distributions).

Talk about hypocrisy. This is the same person who ranted
about lack of transparecy when he was not in the innner circle, but
has a problem with the DPL, RM, and a DPL candidate discussing a
corner stone of Debian like the BTS being dragged into the light of
day.
Pardon me for trying to bring the people who do not IRC into
the conversation.
