Nobody is questioning that.

To be sure our process is not misunderstood - it's not about impatience
(🥴️) or some rules we made up.  We get slightly over 100 patches a day
(for us to apply, not subtrees). Longer review cycles would make keeping
track of patches and discussions unmanageable.

Is the expectation that over time you'll be less and less involved
in particular subsystems? What's the patch volume right now for Rust?
