You have a communication issue in that people assume you're providing something Alpine "official".

They have a communication issue in this escalation (TSC/Council) before trying to simply talk to you.

I'm not gonna blame either of you.

We did not communicate with Sasha because bluntly, we have no objection to the existence of this package itself, but rather third parties distributing the combination to others without disclosing the many caveats about it.

Sasha's package is not the problem, it is the third-party distributors who distribute the final result as an "alpine" image, which leads people to believe that everything is legit about it.

The whole blog post reads a bit hot headed, even more so if this is step one instead of first reaching out to a fellow open source community member.
A comment you're next to written by the post author 20 minutes before you wrote this one, suggests that is not the case.
