The problem with this is that it forces anyone who finds an issue into investing the time to understand the code-base. I'm assuming this developer uses other OSS libraries and I wonder how many of these projects he contributes PRs to if he finds an issue. If you're going to play this way you need to make sure you're not a hypocrite about it (I would have looked but the author didn't actually link to Michael Jackson's project). It's obviously much more efficient for a few experts to understand each OSS library.
