Welcome to the Rust community! This is a place to discuss about the Rust programming language.

dtolnay isn't the only maintainer though. oli-obk is also a maintainer and is participating in the discussions on the PR.
I don't think oli-obk has any say in this as they stated the following:

You're right, I missed that. That's unfortunate.
Author of the PR made it opt-out. I think it may be enough of the compromise for the maintainer.
Has dtolnay shown a strong sentiment towards having it be on always? I can't imagine there's much reason not to make it configurable.
That sounds like he doesn't like to (re-)introduce any other options.
That seems a bit concerning. At first I was under the impression the binary was compiled on the user's machine, but once I saw that it's distributed with serde I can see why people are upset.
That's how procedural macros used to and were intended to work.
That statement is straight up gaslighting.
The precompiled binary is only provided for one platform, Linux. Windows does not use a precompiled binary but compiles its own from the source. How can he claim it's the "only supported way", when for most platforms he is doing it another way? Also, the crate, throughout most of its life, has been doing it another way.
