So far, that's the only case we're aware of, and we only learned
yesterday that they considered using it during that interval.  Anyway,
it has been fixed for a while - for instance, Zbignew has been waiting
on me to merge a pending PR to drop our use of "which" :)

(Javier (co-maintainer) has a post I believe
touching on this as well, but it's stuck in the moderation queue right
now.)

I want to emphasize again that PRs are not the only venue of
communication with maintainers, nor are they the only way to send us
code (attachments on bugzilla, patches upstream, patches to
source-git-likes, ...), nor is sending code the only way to contribute
(investigating issues, translations, ...).

I don't agree that choice is inherently superior, especially when it
creates more work to support.  For a more eloquent explanation of this,
I refer you to ajax's post:

Be well,
