But this does not give you an excuse to do whatever you want. If you want to change something, do it from the inside - apply for portmgr-lurker, become a member, then change the policy or push whatever you want without looking back on other committers. But in your current position you can't be acting as a lone wolf. I'd like to remind you about numerous ports of yours that require updating [1] [2] [3] and AI prompt stuff that you put under Tools/scripts without any usage examples. It'd be great if you focus on these issues first.
