this makes no sense to me, the reason i don't give anyone else the commit bit is only to _protect_ the supply chain. you should want as few people with that access as possible.
do you have any kind of succession plan in place in case you get incapacitated for one reason or another? anyone you trust enough for that?
I think the concern is more if something happens to you or stop development for any reason, then the project is dead or would fork in a few separate directions
