Alright so let's imagine this situation.

Supposed that all developers here take a break from Git ML
(except Junio the maintainer of Git). Many celebrities (public figures
like singers and actors) are instead reviewing patches here (with no
subject matter expertise on Git, let alone programming languages and
software development in general). Almost all patches reviewed by them
are given Reviewed-by trailer from them.

The situation above is roughly similar to some TV programs when
celebrities comment on interesting and unique moments happened
all around the world, with little or no subject matter expertise
regarding the subject being commented.

Junio, what will you do in such situation above (celebrities reviewing
patches and giving Reviewed-by despite of lack of subject matter
expertise)?
