The problem is that everyone is trying to push everything to one side. That's just not stable. Yes, the maintainer SHOULD (but doesn't have to) make a hand-off explicit at a minimum. Yes, people should take responsibility for ensuring their packages are (and remain) legit. But both of these can break down.
It's like litter. It is not realistic to have anyone clean up everyone's trash. It's also not realistic to expect that things remain clean if everyone only picks up their own trash. Everyone needs to clean up their own trash and a little bit more, to compensate for the burps in the system.
