We had two big _fundamental_ problems this merge window: - untested code that clearly didn't do what it claimed it did, and which caused me to not even accept the main pull request - apparmor code that had a regression, where it took three weeks for that regression to be escalated to me simply because the developer was denying the regression. Tell me why I *shouldn't* be unhappy with the security layer? I shouldn't be in the situation where I start reviewing the code and go "that can't be right". And I *definitely* shouldn't be in the situation where I need to come in three weeks later and tell people what a regression is!
