Why do you think that a revert war is inevitable?

The Bitcoin Core repo operates in a similar way - the maintainers are=20
independent and work autonomously. The maintainers do not have to agree=20
on merge decisions nor do they communicate prior to merging. If there's=20
disagreement about a merge decision, we talk to each other about it like=20
adults and come to a mutually agreeable resolution. I don't think=20
there's ever been a revert war in the history of Bitcoin.

I would expect that when there is something that is likely to be=20
controversial or is ambiguous that it should be a BIP that they would=20
then talk to each other about it. It doesn't have to be all or nothing -=20
they can do most work without communicating, but when there's questions=20
or ambiguity, then they communicate.

A revert war would be someone merging a PR that reverts another, then=20
someone else (opening then) merging a PR that reverts that, and it goes=20
back and forth. It would not be limited to PRs only. This would likely=20
be super obvious too that they are controversially merging things as I=20
would be surprised if other BIP editors didn't comment on any of those=20
actions, besides the fact that many people do also watch the BIPs repo.=20
Regardless, the blame is on those who are doing the reverting, and would=20
be both sides.

This concern doesn't make any sense. There are already multiple soft and=20
hard fork BIPs that are not active nor good ideas. A BIP does not need=20
to be a good idea.

It would have to be through the typical maintainer process, although I=20
doubt that he even wants it. But that's completely orthogonal to the=20
BIPs repo discussion.

I don't understand why you assume that.

I've said this before, but if I see a revert war going on in the BIPs=20
repo, I will remove those involved immediately and make a thread on the=20
list to discuss what to do about them. But I doubt that's a scenario=20
that will actually come to pass.
