There's nothing to be gained for KDE either way. No matter what we do
they will continue to pilfer and fork KDE code without contacting
authors while the same done by us is considered unacceptable. It's a
double standard.

simple, really. After things such as above, seeing people constantly
running around conventions flaming KDE, and other things I won't mention
here my respect is below nil.
