RfA is never going to promote zero bad admins unless we overhaul it to
promote zero admins period. That's the unfortunate reality of the situation.
How many sockpuppeting admins have we had? On WP:DESYSOP, it says 33
users have been desysopped. Five were temporary emergency measures due
to account compromise, so that leaves 28 desysopped for some form or
another of misbehavior. Only three of those were for sockpuppetry that I
can see. Out of 1,288 current admins as of this writing (and plenty more
who have voluntarily desysopped over the history of the project) that's
not a failure rate that screams to me we need an overhaul, NOW.
