It's unfair to say there's underlying bias. Livy project is a small project, the contributor diversity may not be as rich as popular project like Spark, it is not fair to say that the contributions only limits to someones, so project is biased. There're many small Apache project which has only few contributors, can we say those projects are biased? Also for years the committers have joined and left the community, it is hard to track every contribution in time, as we're not a full-time Livy open source contributors. I also have several PRs left unreviewed for years. It's quite common even for large project like Spark, Hadoop, there're so many un-merged PRs left for several years. It's unfair to say the project is biased, unhealthy because of some un-merged PRs.
The community is small but free and open, I would deny that the community is unhealthy especially biased, this is an irresponsible and subjective word.
