Just don't understand why you think that someone else having a different one is a problem. People come to me asking when I'm going to implement some monolithic or bloated feature in e.g. Non Timeline and I roll my eyes, thinking to my self, "haven't they missed the whole point?". But just because I think it's a bad idea doesn't mean I'm going to try (or that I could succeed in) stopping them. They 'destroy the quality' of nothing. You still have your pristine and perfect orginal version intact. If you don't like their changes, don't merge them, it's as simple as that.
