Hoi,
When an inconvenient truth is uttered, it is convenient not to have the issue discussed. When people do not care to implement a policy, it can be safely argued that there is a problem with that policy. The least that can be said about this "policy" is that it is not universally welcomed.
When others have to do the dirty work, you have a way of keeping your hands clean.
Thanks,

Let's not open the whole debate again, to (hopefully) answer Huivs question - there is a other policy and a way to implement it, see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators/Inactivity_section
There was a new run scheduled for february 6th, but it doesn't seem anyone felt that organising this was their responsibility. (Anyone could have done it, but everyone thought someone else would do it in so noone did). I'm waiting for someone else myself ;)

The notion that you "have to" desysop people when they are inactive is a falacy on several levels. When people are trusted, they can imho be an admin. In many ways it is an old debate but the difference is that you delete people.
Thanks,
