Daniel J. Bernstein did that for all of his projects (qmail, daemontools, etc) and I don't see him getting a ton of flack over doing that.

He certainly used to back when qmail vs postfix as the better sendmail replacement was a real debate 'we' where regularly having. If he's not getting any flack today it's most likely because he's fallen more or less into irrelevance when it comes to practical day to day operations.
