No. First off, I never said that the rules are there to be able to badmouth people. So calling someone a jerk is never a good idea. And whatever mistake made, the NMU is still someone trying to help you, so you should respond calmly: "Thank you for the NMU but the issue really did not warrant a direct upload, you would have saved us some troubles by contacting me or by uploading to DELAYED." > [0] No, 7 days without activity in the bug log is not a good enough > reason.
