Not to throw shade, just wishing that somebody here can understand. Whenever an input is reasonably long, an analyzing function will crash, and this PR aims to fix that with a mechanism that contradicts the maintainer’s understanding while a similar C implementation does not need this fix. Clearly, the maintainer has not heard a certain programming mantra…

    Incidentally, this kind of passive-aggressive pressure is the kind of thing that might be considered a legitimate security threat, post xz.

    Yes, OP’s attempt to bully a maintainer into accepting his PR is a very shitty thing to do.

    Throwing veiled personal attacks, such as insinuating a developer is incompetent or dumb, is also very bad form.

    This says more about OP than anything. I hope I never have to work with anyone like that. What a shit show of a person.
