> The question I ask is "Why not assign a CVE?"

There's tons of reasons why you wouldn't, but the core reason for this fork probably isn't really about the CVEs as such. It's either the final straw in a long line of disagreements, or the entire thing was handled was so badly that he no longer wants to work with these people. Or most likely: a combination of both.

I once quit after a small disagreement because the owner cut off my explanation on why I built something the way I did with "I don't care, just do what I say". This was after he ignored the discussion on how to design it, and ignored requests for feedback when I was building it. And look, I don't mind to re-doing it even if I don't agree it's better better, but I did put quite a lot of thought and effort in to it and thought it worked very well. If you don't even want to spend 3 minutes listening to the reasons on why it's like that then kindly go fuck yourself.

It's not the disagreement as such that matters, it's the lack of basic respect.
