2. macOS isn't a distro, so you can't just say "let your distro maintainers do it". If you don't submit to MacPorts, the only way you'll get in there is if someone else steps up to submit on your behalf, but that kinda sucks because you're package will likely end up out-of-date in MacPorts unless the volunteer maintainer is super diligent about noticing new releases and updating the Portfile.
So by that logic I have to support mac/nix over every other system by default as they don't have maintainers? That sounds like a mac/nixos problem, not a developer problem.
