From every patch you've demonstrated in the past, my overall impression
is that you put zero effort into attempting to convince others, zero
effort into making the patches capable of supporting the toggleable use
case (no, commenting out lines wholesale is not a suitable patch, adding
a build option and an ifelse would be) and basically, in short...

... you've behaved in a way that guarantees that no patches of yours
will ever be merged upstream.

This is personally sad to me because I actually do think a number of
them would make good toggleable feature options for upstream.
