Because, if it wasn't for Laurent, then KMail would be unmaintained since a 
long time. So far no fork survived for very long because people hugely 
underestimate and therefore don't appreciate the amount of work maintaining 
KMail is.

Also, Laurent has been called to order by reminding him of KDE's code of 
conduct.

Finally, Laurent has reconsidered the removal and has added the menu entry to 
the "Expert Plugin". In my opinion, as KMail power-user and former KMail 
maintainer, I think that's a good solution.

As if the removal of the menu entry would have anything to do with Akonadi.
