To be fair, it's their freedom to create a proposal to any author they want, and it's also the author's freedom to reject the PR.

But to be honest, even if the author rejects it, what will happen is most likely them forking the repo and make changes on top of it.

The issues mostly link to repositories that were created more than a year ago. So I think what happened is that they already forked the repo and made changes on top of it to get it to work on HarmonyOS, but there was no bandwidth for ongoing maintenance. Someone finally realized that this is unsustainable and demanded that the changes get upstreamed, but the people charged with implementing this directive don't know how you upstream changes. Hence this hamfisted attempt.

Most hits aren't even PRs, just issues requesting the repo maintainer to support HarmonyOS.
