You did not object in technical matter at all here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ce0f9785f8f488010cd81adbbdb5ac07742fc988.camel@mediatek.com/
Look at this patch.
You said nothing about actual change, except blocking the community
maintainer. You did not raise any other concerns so what are you
speaking about "other main concerns"?
Even if such existed, they did not matter, because YOU WROTE ONLY:
"The role of MediaTek UFS maintainer is not suitable to be handed over
to someone outside of MediaTek."
This is what we discuss here.

Do you even read your own comments and where did you place them? Do you
understand that we discuss emails, not some unsaid or other threads?
Look at this:

You are twisting the problem, like anyone denied you being the maintainer.
YOU DENIED OTHER PEOPLE!
I finish the discussion here, I am considering your explanations
intentionally twisting the point thus I find it still harmful behavior.
