Valid position from the Void side AND valid crashout. I'm impressed. A distro absolutely can use policy to enforce a vision to be AI-free on the contributions, and a maintainer can quit if they don't agree with the distro vision

I agree.

Leaving so abruptly may not be the classiest move but it's not like one can't leave if he so decides.

The dev will be fine and so will void. Nothing to see here for now.
