It is not hard, it is plain unacceptable for certain people.
Call that religious reasons.
Using github is similar to our requirement to match the code
style when submitting patches. It's non-negotiable, because
there's no good reason not to do it. You just remove those
tabs, then get on with it.
No it is not. GitHub is an intrusive closed ecosystem and it is
legitimate concern for anyone caring about the open internet. The
fact that I have considered D contribution more important than
this concern and the fact that you consider such reasoning silly
does not make it less legit and/or widespread. If you don't want
these contributions - just ignore it, someone else will take
care. But please avoid this pseudo-pragmatical "non-negotiable"
bullshit, at least in public.
