I totally understand the pain of being overruled by bad decisions, and another person here had also indicated a bit earlier that this was the case.

If I could still edit the comment, I would revise "burning white hot rage I have for Debian" to "burning white hot rage I have for the Debian release team". Alas I cannot. :(

Debian, as a project, appointed the release team and granted them the authority to make this decision. Therefore, IMHO, it's perfectly fair to attribute "Debian" to the decision. As long as you understand that it's not the Debian MySQL/MariaDB maintainers :)
