Assuming such contributions are accepted in the first place, which is far from a given. It's not unusual for "polish" sorts of contributions to be refused by project maintainers for various reasons. It doesn't matter how much code I write or how much money I donate if the project has decided it doesn't care about the same things I do. Of course I can technically always fork or start my own project, but that increases expenses by an order of magnitude, which I might not be able to afford.
