You expect others to act on consensus and follow rules, yet ignore them
yourself when it suits your purpose. Your other points seem designed to
distract people from seeing that.

There is clear agreement that a problem exists. The action to take as a
result of that problem is very clearly in doubt and yet you repeatedly
ignore other people's comments and viable technical resolutions. If you
can find a cat's paw to break consensus for you, more fool them. You
might find someone with a good resolution, if you ask that instead.
