As long as the Maintainer is the gatekeeper, you're not going to get
very far with this argument.  The fact is that a lot of subsystems have
varying rules; often undocumented, some of which are even in conflict,
like alphabetic vs reverse christmas tree format for includes.

A cover letter is actually one of the more uniform rules.  It's
referred to in submitting patches, but not actually documented there.
