I got a single class that supported new hardware written for a controller. They said they don't want the overhead of maintaining an additional class for new hardware (a class that doesn't change ever btw). I thought whatever, works for me, doesn't need to be on the repo and "I got mine". I have since seen 3 people asking if the hardware is supported / asking for it to be implemented. Oh well.
In that case I'd point them to your fork with a link to the PR where they maintainer chose not to include it.
Why? To start problems for me from pissy maintainers when I need help with something?
