Matt has unfortunately been very unresponsive to any feedback about what should or should not go into core. Despite claiming WordPress core is open-source and open to almost everyone, the team leaders responsible for what goes into each release have been all Automattic employees since 2019.

Which adds to the disingenuousness of all of this. Matt thinks WP Engine should have contributed more to the core... but only on features that Automattic decides? Clearly madness.
