Then the systemd maintainer (i.e. me and the rest of the team) should be
bopped on the head.

I'd appreciate if your hypothetical scenarios aren't «let's assume that
everyone are bonkers and do crazy stuff», since well, if they are, we
need to fix that.  The problem then isn't that they're uploading
packages which are not appropriate for the archive, it's that they don't
understand why that is a problem.

You can't regulate «don't be crazy», since if people want to, or don't
understand what crazy means they will route around such a decision using
technicalities.
