This is your own position, but it's not what the majority of people think :)

Some contributors are really happy with their badges, this is not a TDF
work, but it's done by the ASK bot.

What Mike is doing is different, he his prominently displaying the names
of the contributors and send them (if they want) a sticker to thank them
for their contributions. And I've seen many of the contributors happy
and proud with their stickers, there is a fair collection of their
feedback on the social media.

Cheers
Sophie
