For reference this disussion was:
I don't dispute that we could do better, and this is just a
simplistic look based on "number of commits per day", but the

I don't know how you can say these patches are being questioned just
because they are near the feature freeze (FF). There are clear
concerns, and post-feature freeze is not the time to be evaluating which
patches which were pushed in near feature freeze need help.
What is the huge rush for these patches, and if they were so important,
why was this not done earlier? This can all wait until PG 18. If
Supabase or someone else needs these patches for PG 17, they will need
to create a patched verison of PG 17 with these patches.

So the patches were rushed, have problems, and now we are requiring
Andres to stop what he is doing to give immediate feedback --- that is
not fair to him.
