I think you have a real problem with logics in general as it's not the
first time you're reverting cause and consequence in people's arguments.

I'm basically saying that we don't revert patches any other way than
by backporting the revert and you're saying that every patch has to
be backported. Come on, this discussion makes no sense at all. You're
wasting everyone's time for nothing, just because you want to be right
even after everyone explained you the same thing. You got me bored.
