In a way that I tell the requester "you better have some really, really good reason for wasting my time on this".
Hell, I've even had a new hire prepare an entire presentation to convince us to change the line-length to something different than "The Language Standard".
"We follow the language standard" and if you don't like it, convince upstream (This was Rubocop/Ruby) is another one I've used in the past.
Naturally both people just gave up. There really is a better way to spend time than on tuning and tweaking a linter. Nearly all linters have some way to document and define very local exceptions for that case when some external__dependency_IsMxing_camel_case or whatever.
