EDIT: Comments from the maintainers have painted a completely different picture while I wrote this so none of this applies here but I'm leaving it up as a general view on maintainership.
Very strange, makes me want to avoid i3 altogether. It's not like it requires a lot of code to support configurable, optional gaps.
Probably the rationale is something asinine like "I don't like gaps, gaps are dumb" or "buhu I don't like the completely negligible overhead"
I actively avoid projects whose maintainers are MDFLs rather than BDFLs.
