You are trying to justify adding a language that wants to use dma for example.,.... A second language that uses another running program to demand memory from the kernel. This is just an assumption mind you, but I willing to bet you submitted something in the past that violated some basic rule of memory management that got refused? Maybe Cgroups? Just an assumption mind you.... Many contributers at one time were convinced that cgroups was unworkable without adding a whole new language to "manage memory" with untested minor release rust as their solution.

You may consider the environment border free, I may consider the environment border free.....but the Russian government has submitted lists of contributers, hundreds of names, that should be forbidden to submit patches while warning of "dire" consequences? Zelenskyy even made the list and wasn't even in politics yet. And I wonder how many people restricted due to sanctions now were on that list?

Who does that hurt really? They made their own smartphone OS essentially because they were unhappy with the conditions the dominant OS's put on their contributions. China complains about backdoors all the time yet are constantly caught doing just that. Whatever....assuming all things equal they could of just forked linux 30 years ago or any time since then, or windows when they were given the source code after claiming a great victory with reverse engineering it. We would have a competitor to those projects by now. Everything they develop in my opinion is potentially a backdoor, even likely and barely works in western environments. My opinion is that had 100% been their intention, always was and the 5G rip out is a perfect example. 20 years ago China with Russia's backing took their 5G cause to the UN complaining about unfair dominance on the west's part. The UN then suggested making China's development the priority. Just to have all their infrastructure ripped out and replaced.
