Once again, they're volunteers doing unpaid work. They're not beholden to anyone's interests except their own.
If you don't like their decisions, you're free to criticize them, but to imply that (rightly) putting themselves above their users is a bad thing is an entirely different beast when they don't owe anything to their users.
At the end of the day, if you don't like their decisions, you're free to work towards becoming a maintainer and make your voice heard, or fork it and do whatever you want and think is right. But nobody owes you or any other user anything unless you explicitly are paying them for the time and effort.
