An Issue tracker is to track issues regarding the behaviour of the program, not the behaviour of the maintainer.

And focusing on that after the fact does nothing to resolve the situation or advance the discussion, which should be the goal now.

During an emergency situation where an issue is running out of control, the priority is to evaluate and contain the problem then address it, it is not the time to assign blame and quote regulations which weren’t followed. That’s for later, when everything is stable, together with understanding why the rules weren’t followed and if you can improve that process for the future.
