Wanting to know and forcing everyone to tell you are two entirely
different things.
Its everyones right to keep their finances private. Would I be forced
to disclose my hourly wages and then determine how long I worked on a
patch, just because I did it during my day job? Thats not going to
happen.

To take a line from your post:
Are you against privacy?

Patches should generally be considered on their own merit. Any such
information will only bias any discussions and result in more
conflict.
