Suppose X==5 for a short patch. How hard it is to say "Please give me 
more time to review this" when you need more than 5 days to review a 
patch to a code you maintain?

When you decide to maintain some code, people will post patches against 
it. Most will be non-essential. You, as the maintainer, is expected to 
review then. I hope you don't qualifies this process as babysitting...
