When you consider that some of these have already been here for a long 
time without attracting attention, one more week is obviously a very 
short time to wait.  It avoids the error of creating unnecessary 
confusion.  Nobody's challenging the uploader's duty, or passing that 
duty on to the reviewer; your unique perception does not make it so.  
There's no reason to panic about this.
