You're not alone, Alex; I objected to that part as well. (See e.g. https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BF4rXBOKsn8bG6y3QUEtNVV9K2Pk5NmwrU5818CqhRt_Q@mail.gmail.com/ and various other emails in that thread, ending with "agree to disagree" later). I still object to it as I did then.

I'm curious whether it'll just be resubmitted again multiple times, eventually with a cover letter that repeats something along the lines of "these are the non-controversial changes from last-year series which...don't have any reason not to be merged."
