There is a delicate balance of interests in a debate

First, some topics will /only/ be fully explored in private with trusted
individuals, rather than the entire open community -- especially if there
are seriously personal or admin/project reasons to consider. Office, OTRS,
arb-email, checkuser, oversight... Wikipedia is far from completely
transparent and this /already/ has a high degree of communal assent.
The problem is that in this case we are in effect asking the inner
community to judge one of their own. So far their record in this area
isn't great.
There are ways around this such as asking fr.arbcom to reivew the
issues but that would tend to create language problems.
