It is not nice to decide for others what they may need.

It would have been courteous to acknowledge the answers to
your argument against having a dedicated component (to more
efficiently manage codes that have already been accepted within
the "Commons" project, as part of CM), and explain
 * why those answers would not make you withdraw your -1,
 * why the ASF would be better off without the offered contribution,
 * why some initiatives in Commons deserve a worse treatment
   than others.

My rationale, for whether a specific component is needed, has
always been the same: Define a scope (and stick to it).
You seem to find this acceptable for any Commons project except
those which you tagged as "math-related".

So I'm asking: Will it make any difference if the "machine learning"
codes are further developed within [Math]?  Concretely:
 * Would you vote to release CM v4.0?
 * Would you help (more than if the ML codes were in a
   specific component) to review/merge the PRs?
