There's a fun game that toxic internet communities like to play, where the elites of the community say one thing in one breath, and then another thing in another breath. Then their legions of weak-minded followers will cite that one thing or the other thing whenever their community identity is threatened. Either or, the community will gladly lie on the behalf of the elites. The elites pretend not to see the lies and the low-ranking community members pretend that they have no responsibility.
Silly tribal nonsense that applies to more than a few maintainers and software.
