No one said "Alexey must immediately fix this himself or we must revert immediately." Here's what I said: "If you cannot address the issue immediately, please let me know so that I can take further action." Further actions might include me fixing the issue myself. I hadn't figured that out yet. I just needed an answer quickly so that I could make sure we resolved this issue in the appropriate time frame. > To me this example seems pretty parallel to the situation > <https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108214>.

Honestly, it's because you've changed the ground rules for contributing to WebKit such that it's now ok to break other ports in some situations. When Alexey wrote: "The fact that you chose to do an obvious hack instead does not make it others' responsibility to support it." I interpreted that to mean he felt justified in extending those ground rules to parts of WebCore that don't live up to his personal engineering standards. I wanted to be clear that I view that as unacceptable.
