"actively harmful for the vast majority of use cases" but you've discounted the effect of burnout on maintainers, who are the vast minority of individuals. This effect must not be understated, sustainability is a primary conc

Misleading users for GitHub stars... that's a paddling! Maybe it's like the YouTube Like and Subscribe, except for the part where they contact you for new releases. It's a lot less pushy to tell people to star your repo than
