Uhh... just for everybody's information, Peter Todd's pull request was closed a month ago:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32359"Closed with unmerged commits
This pull request is closed."
So that settles that.
It looks like the subject was brought up again with a different approach, but I'm not smart enough to understand
how its different or the implication of the 5 commits being merged as of 2 days ago:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32406
