Perfectly understandable and never in question.

'Technically' correct as mentioned, yes.

I've asked for a revert on the basis that the reset for a consecutive
timeout period of over 2 years and in this case without any other change
(or PR).

In cases where I cannot make a change myself given a time constraint, my
default workflow/policy is to approve the change (where QA'd) and
unblock the submitter. There was no opportunity to do so in this case.

I'm still asking for the change to be reverted.
