I support people choosing not to directly respond with their
unspecified reasons, but if anyone is open to sharing I would
appreciate them doing so. I agree with Nikita that the concept is
useful, and with some refinement it could be more acceptable to
voters. If we know more about these "unspecified reasons" then perhaps
we can improve something for them as well.

A guess: they don't really want unproven data structures going into
core, well, because you see the state of some (many) of the SPL data
structures.
