I don't think this is really a fair statement to make. We have lots of 
potential reviewers subscribed to this list but very few people actually 
review code, and those that do review code are expected to provide some 
sort of technical objection or reason why it shouldn't be merged. A 
random subscriber without commit access posting "Nak" on a patch without 
explaining why isn't grounds to block it.
