There hasn’t been any info on the below in the last 10 days, is anything happening in the background which the list is not privy to? Or are we in a stalemate between the TZ coordinator and the opponents of this change?

We seem to be at an impasse.
I don't think there is any support from the mailing list for the merging patch to remain in the repo. You've had many requests to revert it, and no requests to retain it.
There are technical solutions available to reduce the amount of data published to downstream users, but the starting point must be a fully populated database, not one that is logically broken. The next action must be to revert. Then we can agree on any technical measures necessary.
