Pablo is not being honest about his true intentions and long term
goals with this series. Or also brought up fundamental objections
against previous versions of this series which were not sufficiently
addressed by Pablo.

My personal concern has been brought up several times.

I am not going to restate the same thing over and over, and he hasn't
fixed up his introductory posting in response to my concerns in any
meaningful and full way.

Therefore, if I feel like my and Or's feedback will keep being
ignored, I will keep rejecting these changes.
