Marak's GitHub sponsors aren't changed. If people wanted to specifically sponsor Marak, they would have chosen to do it there. The Open Collective is very specifically about the project, not a specific person.

The current fakerjs has more of a relationships with the original code than what's in Marak's repo.
I don't see the issue. The Open Collective is specifically about sponsoring the project, which Marak clearly and publicly washed his hands of.
Again, they weren't sponsoring Marak. They were sponsoring the project. The project is still going.
Do you also have no issue if GitHub just transfers Marak's repo to the new team? Or all the stars? Since obviously most of people are starring the "project" not him.
I'm trying to use analogy to show the ridiculousness of transferring followers (sponsors) around without agreement of two parties. Hell, I think it makes even less sense in OC's case since there is real money involved.
