I have the same feelings. When I first read Kyle's application I
thought it's great to have someone like him on board and he would get
my Yes for a 100%. Kyle is certainly doing a lot of good for Arch
Linux and I'm sure he wrote the bot with good intentions. But
launching the bot without discussion wasn't very responsible.

Now I'm somewhere in between. On one hand I think Kyle would be a
great addition to the team, especially given his enthusiasm. On the
other hand I'm a bit scared about such impulsive behavior as the
launching of the bot was.
