Personally, I don't think it's a good look for the project. Perhaps "stupid" was a bit much, though I am led to believe that the person who suggested it has not met the average PCB designer and KiCad user. They're not system/network admin types. :P

Can I throw in a little bit of user insight?

Our full-time PCB guy is on the other side of a low wall from my desk. I asked him, “Should PCB libraries be in a git repository?”

Succinct, and I think relevant, answer: “What’s a git repository?"
