True, but I've seen enough of it now that open source politics should almost be a field to major in. :) It's never blatant, it's always calls for seemingly good things like extra pluggable points to make sure we don't favor particular solutions. Then it's making sure that any decision is brought to a huge vote by a giant committee that spends weeks arguing about if it's something they should even decide on, etc. Ultimately there are ways to do immense damage to open source communities with small well placed "concerns" that seed doubt. Usually it's a mailing list post (or github issue) with some grand question like "Is X something Kubernetes should really be doing?" followed by bullet points outlining other unrelated issues that "we should be focusing on" and to "leave X up to other tools because the solutions are a matter of taste and therefore there is no right solution."
