Why would he resign over that? He's threatened to resign over removing DOS support, but has no problem with pdumper.

I'm not going to argue. If enough people think I'm mistaken and want to go the portable dumper way, I will resign right here and now. It is very easy to convince me to step down, because I hesitated to take this job to begin with. -- lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-11/msg00640.html

Bruv would run the same guilt trip maybe once every couple years, the last time being the c-ts-mode snafu of his own creation. That time, someone snarkily replied, "Please do [resign]!" Bruv hasn't done it again since. This emacs thing is all he has.

Oh. Correction noted. That's all water under the bridge now though. You can't hold grudges forever.
