> I would like to see this statement where he said he would reject it, I searched and couldn't find any statements to that effect.

It follows from his reasoning that allowing the user to configure the driver to their personal preference would make his job harder because it increases the number of possible configurations. And also from him rejecting such a proposal already.

Can you please share the email or issue where the proposal was made and where it was rejected? I still can't find it. I'd like to continue this conversation and discuss what can be done about it, but we can't discuss this much further without that because I don't really know what you're talking about. I will even look at the proposal and tell you what can be improved about it so maybe it can be made again in a better way. If the reason it was rejected is it because it made his job harder, a way to solve that would be to offer to contribute so you can make his job easier and take some of the maintenance load off him.
