He didn't. Martin did. Linus only referenced it in the mailing list

True, if they don't like it, they could just fork away.
However, the fork would never have the resources that mainline Linux has. And as long as Linus is alive, it likely wouldn't succeed.
the maintainer of the component won't accept the patch because he can't understand Rust code
It's a common accusation in the Linux/FOSS world that people block merges and leave nitpicking comments about code they didn't even try to understand and just glanced at. I don't know how real it is. But I certainly know that the Linux world is full of people with this attitude.
Exploiting social media NPCs to get your way is really unprofessional and counterproductive.
Agreed. But should social relations be able to stand in the way of technological decisions? Linus isn't even talking about the patch here anymore, it's only politics.
At first glance this seems to track with Australia, US, UK on the right and China, India on the left. But it isn't really a good rule of thumb with Spain and Japan, Korea on the bottom right or Saudi Arabia on the left.
The platitude wisdom about this is:
- Asians are more collectivists
- Anglosphere is more individualist
- Catholics are institutionalists but not collectivist
- Arabs are anti institutionalists but not individualist
TL;DR: There are ancient historical sources that say women were really influential in some pockets in Britain. Meanwhile, these regions have lower diversity in mitochondrial DNA than Y-chromosome DNA. Mitochondrial DNA is something you inherit only from your mother, Y-chromosome DNA is something you only inherit from your father.
