+2 isn't super-big deal since all changes are public and you're not
supposed to self-+2 in any case, and anything doable by patch can also
be undone by patch. As I understand it, it's more like "this person
knows enough and known enough to get approval rights". It won't change
if somebody leaves WMF.
Hi. For what it's worth, <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/%2B2>
specifically emphasizes that +2 is a big deal.
If there's external reasons for +2 removal, that
can happen without WMF
in the picture and I imagine there are rules for this which can be
applied.
Revocation of +2 is documented at
