Well as far as i can see you’ve only had a problem with evince, which is retired btw. Gnome isn’t a giant blob, each maintainer handles their project in their own way.
I was curious not knowing that evince is getting retired and looked into this It seems there was a problem even for established contributors which is why it was eventually forked. This Blogpost goes into detail.
It seems the main maintainer had very little time for the project. I don’t know if that was the case 4 years ago but if it was it would explain some things.
