True, a PTL (representing the contributors to a particular project) can
definitely refuse to apply TC (representing all openstack contributors)
decisions to his project. The only (nuclear) option for the TC is to
vote uncooperative or repeated offenders projects off the integrated
release, which is a bit of a mutually-assured destruction, so not really
an option.

Consensus (or paying in beers) should definitely be preferred :)
