Thanks!
Just to set my own expectations, may I send pull requests to github, or
must I send patches here?
If not, you may want to add a CONTRIBUTING doc outlining the corrected
procedure.
Any people attempting to "do it wrong" would then see it before submitting
a PR.

I did not know that. It does make it clear that what you're doing is
intentional.
I brought up the bazaar because you criticized systemd as neglecting "The
bazaar approach that has made the free software ecosystem what it is
today;", which made me think s6 would embrace the bazaar in contrast.

I think the cpython project shows that populism and restraint aren't
mutually exclusive features.
It's a very bazaar-oriented project, but also quite conservative about
feature creep, with all major design decisions stopping with the BDFL.
