I would not have said it that way, but you are not wrong.

While in theory it would be nice to have tests for all new code, the
entitlement of the members of this project who contribute little code or
none at all who demand ever more and more from those who do is sincerely
disgusting.

They think they can get away with it because they believe they control
access to the project and the prestige of being published in FFmpeg will
push anybody to jump through hoops. Well, they are wrong on the second
point, nothing new happened in FFmpeg except interfacing with other
code, the prestige is melting like a glacier in the XXIst century. So
let us make sure they are wrong on the first point.

Regards,
