I think there's a lot of misunderstanding on this whole thing. The issue pointed out was that the CoC makes a false feeling of protection by being in extensions that are developed outside WMF's technical spaces. That is if I had an issue with an extension's maintainer WMF would refuse to help as it wasn't in WMF's technical spaces as per the CoC.
This has probably been interpreted as maintainers are against CoC. However, if the CoC.md file were to claim that the authors support a specific Code of Conduct it would probably be fine. Also I would like to note that I have immense respect and thanks for the WMF devs for their hard work on maintenance on all of these extensions.
