another thing worth pointing out here is that the harder it is to test a 
submitted patchset locally, the fewer non-committer reviews will happen.

and if all the review work rests on the shoulders of the committers, then 
there'll be long response times on submissions, or straight out 
forgotten/ignored submissions (khm). especially if it's about some hw or some 
sw that none of the committers care about, or could test locally (e.g. Trezor 
support: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/65037 that doesn't even build in master).
