I still have not yet seen stated what issues or deficiencies this
proposal is attempting to resolve. We have the what but not the why.
If you feel that the documentation can be improved or clarified, you
can and should submit a simple patch.

This is not a well written GCD, and the reply will be that everyone
should help fix the issues, but it is on the author to frame the topic
under discussion. Why make everything a team, but then distinguish
special teams? Why when "serious issues emerge, the maintainer's
collective can be (partially) replaced by a GCD" when maintainers can
singularly disapprove that GCD? That is high-trust to low-trust.
