Yeah, I can't imagine that any committer (or reviewer, really) is
doing any such thing, because it would take far too much effort to
figure out how much work anyone else is doing.  I see CFMs reminding
everybody that this rule exists, but I don't think they ever try to
check it either.  It's pretty much the honor system, and I'm sure
some folk ignore it.
