Why are we concerned about consistency here?

As you will have observed with your other patch, wholesale changes to a
file like MAINTAINERS lead to merge conflicts.  We can handle those - if
there is a good reason.  I'm not convinced that "consistency" counts as
such.  Let's just let the maintainers present their trees as they wish.
