The process catches subtle errors all the time that could cause
problems for users or other stakeholders, it helps keep Fedora stable
and on course.

And in particular with this specific change, is already well tested
elsewhere, NetworkManager folks were in favor, and it was discussed by
the Workstation working group prior to becoming a change proposal..
And in the original FESCo vote it passed with a majority of the votes.

Plurality decisions are frequent in most committees. In no possible
way was the process unreasonable.

And review your metaphors please: to use a rubber stamp means that
something is approved without assessment. That is self evidently not
the case. This is not resolved's first day at the rodeo.
