yes, it's great to live in a filtered reality. i suggest you browse the
kde-commits archives and check *how* often somebody complains about
violations of project policy. usually it's newbies who just didn't know
(and there is no way you'd be able to fix that without putting it right
in their way), but there are also cases where people disrespect coding
style, review guidelines, etc. despite having it pointed out to them
repeatedly, obviously believing their "mission" is more important than a
project's sovereignty.
