And having multiple maintainers maintaining a single "canonical" git
repo is the sweetest thing ever. Merging changes from many different sources into a single "master" is actually *fun* as opposed to painful with a centralized VCS.

Merging is natural for a decentralized tool, it's not the case for centralized. The best proof is Subversion which cannot handle correctly until a short while history merges.
