I presume you can back it up with numbers how widely 3.7 and 3.6 are
used by Arch users. All I can see is that both have less than 30 votes
in AUR. Even if I take into account how irrelevant AUR votes are, I
assume the problem is exaggerated.

Our approach of "YOLO push random new packages to repos" is something I
never agreed with, for the record. Unfortunately it's a kingdom with
almost no rules.
