I do - in the spirit of dropping packages that do not build after about
two weeks, as discussed around FOSDEM. I think there is no point in keeping
orphaned patches around for packages that apparently nobody cares about
any more.

That is fine as well, if you care about the package, that contradicts
my motivation above!

Well, then you replace 2 weeks by twice 2 weeks, which is also fine,
but not fundamentally different from the approach that apparently
you find unreasonable.
