No problem. I'm really just trying to keep the story straight. The only issue I have with the timing is that I told them I was not comfortable with them as admin on the repo yet as soon as they were made admin (to fix the CLA bot, which happened to be only a week or so after my email) this happened. No social engineering necessary but really poor timing on top of non-existent communication. And here we are, sadly.
