 Do I care about eth: no
Do I support eth nostr client: yes
Do I care if eth addy in your profile: no
Should we merge eth addy into NIP repo: no

If an eth maxi just unilaterally merged it into the nip repo without any input or discussion, would you be ok with it? Some eth holders will say yes.

Now what if a bunch of clients all implement eth, and they start running into interoperability issues doing eth zaps, *then* we should define a standard for it in a NIP, with input from users,  client devs and relay operators.

Now change eth to pronouns and you'll better understand my position and why I was against that hasty merge.
