It is not confrontational, as it has been pointed out by others
here. You might rephrase what I meant to say as:
6. This particular developer knows there is more to a release than
his personal (or particular group's) points of view, and
acknowledges any decision put forward by the release team, as
long as they listen to the project real concerns, will be
better informed and, thus, better than any random date that
might be pushed forward
