First, `merge` and `deploy` are two different things. I agree that it
could have been deployed by someone and then later we realized that
blog also get deployed.

The first PR I see is a blog post and second one is just a CSS change.
If it create a `chaos`, why am I unable to see any comments on the
merged PR for the same?

Was this issue bought up anywhere?

The issue could have been really handled with a lot more diligence
than this. I cannot see if Vijay still realized what *communtiy is
saying*.

I'm still disappointed.

Can someone reinstate (realslimshanky's rights). Neither I can see an
apology, nor I see reversal of unethically snatching away rights.
