Commons isn't a thing that speaks with a single voice, and -- more importantly -- with literally hundreds of files proposed for deletion every day, there are bound to be plenty of decisions that are either wrong, or debatable. Whatever experience you're generalizing on to make this sweeping statement of an entire project "not wanting to comply," I am pretty confident you are making a leap of logic or two in there. That said, how about a friendly wager, that will allow us to explore this space and generate a larger sample, that we can all observe for patterns? For every decision on Commons that you think demonstrates a desire to resist a WMF board resolution, I will supply 5 decisions that demonstrate a thoughtful balance among the needs of copyright holders, people depicted in photos, Wikimedia projects, and other stakeholders. We can go back and forth as long as you want -- I'd suggest you start off with maybe 5 examples, and if you do I'll find 25. But do as many as you'd like.
