I have a strong opinion over this

All the ACL's should be accepted, doesn't matter the level.
And why i think of this ?

Two simple reasons:
- The packager abandoned the package, because several reasons, and then is
far away from Fedora systems for some time
- The packager is actively using Fedora, but seen not care to even properly
take care of his package, not in the minimal sense to deny the ACL, which
would be acceptable.

In both cases, the package became hostage to someone that for sure aren't
caring much for the distro, unless prove me wrong.
