----------------------------------------

John, I do know about CTR. But as you found out the change affects others. So 
in order to be defensive instead of changing a known and used API you could 
have introduced a new method with the behavior you intend mark the old one 
deprecated and all are fine. Now you have done differently - which you can do - 
but you somehow ignore the feedback and that’s not CTR!

The feedback is constructive and I do suggest that you take that into account. 
Saying a „ … debate doesn’t matter … „ is not an argument. 

> PDFImageWriter doesn't make use of PDFStreamEngine

> PDFImageWriter is a subclass of PDFStreamEngine, however it never uses any of 
> its functionality, the writeImage methods could be marked as static and 
> behave in the same manner.
> The relationship between PDFImageWriter, RenderUtil, and ImageIOUtil no 
> longer matches its historical origins and needs to be refactored.
