What if there are no other devs/maintainer? Maintainers have to be trusted, have to prove that they know what their
doing etc...

I wouldn't want someone random person from the community becoming a maintainer for a package or two, because you don't
know what he or she knows. I wouldn't want to install a pkg that wipes out my whole /usr dir by mistake.

Also if security is a big concern arch isn't probably the best distro to be using.
