That's a pretty unfair statement to make.
I never claimed it's my policy, only that's what I had been told in
#bsdports.

On this particular case, these are a dozen "light" dependencies so if
you asking me to vote on it, I say sphinx is not worthy of an exception,
honestly.  The whole set builds in a couple of minutes as I recall.  You
are make it a much bigger deal that it really is, especially given that
these dependencies are most likely already present due to other ports
having required them.
