You are under no obligation to agree with them.

I'm not sure what you are attributing as being "my work", nor why you would consider it my obligation. Code review is motivated by a desire to maximize quality. If you think a suggestion is a bad idea, out of scope, something you don't have time for or just don't want to do, that is certainly ok.

Indeed, and thank you for it. The bug that you have proposed a fix for might have have been avoided had more extensive test coverage been in place. I presume you are a user of these interfaces (I am not) and therefore have a desire for them to work reliably. My suggestion was motivated to help fill in additional testing gaps using the infrastructure you are now offering in the hopes that doing so would identify additional defects or prevent regressions in the future (which I presume you would benefit from). If you don't find that motivating, that is ok. The libc++ maintainers can (and will) determine if they are sufficiently motivated to accept any future burden of maintaining and/or improving what you have offered or whether they would like additional changes first before accepting (I am not a libc++ maintainer).
