from the outside it sure doesn't look 'settled', the issues of governance (and more precisely, arguments over such issues)

Huh? Where do you get that from? There is a strong and vibrant project at koha-community.org with input from around the world (including the USA). A US support company runs another project (LEK - which is not open source as far as I know). Many people hope that these two can be brought back together. But to suggest that is critical to the future of the project misunderstands how the project works, imho.
That is easy to say for people in the community or very familiar with it (and possibly even to those who understand Open Source development), but it can be a huge red flag for others. Perception is reality. Edward
