These requirements are broken. It is a good idea for patches that fix
something but it is absolutely bad for adding new port. Initial set of
patches for it is big and it is much better to use a compressed patch (or
even set of such) than posting 30 or 50 small patches in separate emails.
This is your opinion; others voted differently.
Note that nobody asked for lots of tiny patches. Please  re-read  the

When it is already in the tree, yes, it is possible to use small patches and
it is good to do so.
compressed -> unreadable -> ignored.
Please do not complain then.
