If the submitter is wrong, should I be wrong, too?
If the submitter said that the foo port has bugs, you can fix them
even though you're not the maintainer?
Ok, let me ask you a simple question:

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT THE SUBMITTER IS RIGHT IN THIS CASE???

Did you find any bug? Did you test it?

Obviously, you didn't.
As you said, you only did what original author of the PR asked for.
Very good reason, isn't it?
