The title is an interesting take on the issue. I would have gone with:
"Entitled users of free software spazz out over unwanted change"
I believe the issue is that the Homebrew developers (not Github staff) added a feature that will be useful for some people. Others did not like it and started to complain. Homebrew developer states a relatively easy solution for said users. Build a new tap; easy.
As for the need to actually add the new dependency: I will leave that up to the developers who contribute to the free/open source software.

I can certainly understand that sentiment. Thankfully the open source licensing does allow us to clone and go our own way.

I'm getting nothing but 503 on Archive.is and Archive.fo. Anyone else getting that?

Yes, I am now receiving a 503 page from archive.is

Looks like it's back up.
