Torvalds is right in his diagnosis, but the solution he proposes reveals something deeper: open source was built on the idea that more contributors is always better, and now it's discovering that this has limits when the cost of triage exceeds the value of the contribution. The question nobody is asking is: what if AI is exposing a vulnerability that already existed in the voluntary maintenance model? Dozens of human maintainers managing critical infrastructure that runs the entire world is, in itself, a fragile system. AI just made that problem visible faster. Is the real solution better documentation, or is it time to rethink how projects of this scale are governed and funded?
