I've always really liked MvL's 5-reviews-to-get-1 approach.

The only thing I don't like about it[3] is that it puts an explicit
price on core developer time ("my time is worth 5x as much as
yours").

Not really true since any of the 5 could be one or two sentence comments while his 1 might include committing, or a second review after revision. Besides which, a person accepting the offer got to choose both the 5 to review and the 1 to be reviewed. Choice has value.

I fear that it may be a little off-putting.

Perhaps, but it is also attractive enough that there have been several requests for someone to renew the offer, and no core developer currently willing to make the offer (because giving up choice is a cost).
