Is reading /. now required part of patch reviewer's day?

You are

1) submitting the patch

2) saying that reasons for it are non-technical and obvious

3) saying that you can't tell us the reasons.

Well if they are obvious, please get us someone who _can_ discuss them
with us. Preferably a lawyer that can explain why the patch is
neccessary.
