Two sugguestions.

The first one is, if you get a reply from a maintainer (especially a top
maintainer), try harder to understand/learn from that reply, but don't
keep asking why and don't keep arguing without much thinking. I think
what's why sometimes people are annoyed in the discussion with you.

The second one is, better focus on a specific subsystem and try to do some
real work. It's not bad to start making patches like this one, but it won't
do you any good in the long term. Don't get addicted in increasing patch
contribution.
