The sort of thing that happens is that the relevant approvers will
accept python-dev as a "trusted supplier" and then Python upgrades are
acceptable subject to review of the changes, etc. For a new module,
there is a whole other level of questions around how do we trust the
person who developed the code, do we need to do a full code review,
etc?

It's a bit unfair to describe the process as "random pieces of C"
being "shuffled under the carpet". (Although there probably are
environments where that is uncomfortably close to the truth :-()
