That patch was not attempting to address all the concerns you raised, only the part where you wrote, "it is not documented in the Emacs manual". The idea of the patch was to address concerns where common ground can be found, even if we don't agree about everything.

My main concern at the moment is my belief that you have been and are
attempting to maximise the difficulty faced by Emacs users in disabling
curly quotes.

Please don't be concerned about that. Your belief is incorrect. I don't care whether text-quoting-style preference is expressed only via setq or also via M-x customize. It's currently done only via setq because the previous maintainer decided to do it that way in Emacs 25, and because he and the current maintainers haven't seen the need to change it since then.
