[python-committers] Should I merge a PR that I approved if it was written by a different core developer?

I'm opposed. The author can be more acquainted with the writing code than 
reviewers. The author sees it in wider context and knows its history. I 
continue to think about my patches even after creating a PR and several times 
rethinked it after approving by other core developers, that lead to rewriting 
or even rejecting a PR.

In additional, I think there is less probability that the author forgot to 
edit the commit message before clicking on the [Merge] button. ;-)
