During that thread a couple people said that novice reviewers added no
value to the review process, and nobody argued with them then. I've
also been told this to my face at pgCon, and when I've tried organizing
patch review events. I got the message, which is why I stopped trying
to get new reviewers.
And frankly: if we're opposed to giving credit to patch reviewers, we're
opposed to having them.
