Please note that the dist.apache.org release directory is very different in
this regard.
If artifacts are published by moving them to the release directory, it is *not*
easily possible to revert publication
This is because the release directory is used to distribute the files to the
world-wide mirror system.
And to the ASF archive system, which would require Infra assistance to revert.
Mistakes are not easily recovered.
This is why the default is for PMC members only.
