You're making assumptions. You've said that anyone who's on maintainers
needs push rights. Then you said that unless someone explicitly asks not to
get push rights, they will if they're added to maintainers. Right now, the
person hasn't said anything, yet you're assuming he doesn't want push rights.

I've sent a patch to list maintainers with push access. Those who'd like
push access will have to explicitly request it in a different commit.
If that patch is accepted, I have no problem with this patch.
