The main problem with your story is that there is no "main dev from inkscape". There's a rag tag group of fairly junior developers and amazing support volunteers.
But, I could see how the story could get twisted over time. I'm pretty sure I've never shared my bank account details and I'm the worst bastard at Inkscape for asking users to contribute, all users, in any way they can. This is because contributions are lifeblood, not users. Adobe is great because 90% of their users are contributors where as 0.01% of Inkscape users ever contribute.
So consider contributing your passion about Inkscape at chat.inkscape.org there's a ux team and everything.
