I think Richard is following a "in case of significant opposition to change, preserve the status quo" here. There have been cases of "but I'm sure I know better than the opposition" in PyPI's history, and some of these ended up with a debacle, hateful email, and so on (I know, because I *did* know better than the opposition :-) If you follow the rule Richard has exercised, the number of supporters must be *much* larger than the opposition, so that the opposition can be considered insignificant.
