Since I was involved in the redirecting and reverting, I was not allowed to protect the page, much as I would have liked to.
And why should I send an email when THREE attempts to discuss it on the user's page were ignored?

The current rigid, tie-our-hands protection policy seems to force people to think in terms of arbitration and blocking, rather than protecting. This in turn makes the arbitration commitees job harder, I think, wheras the proactive settle it on the page approach seems more wikifaithful.

Try sending an email, before taking an extreme step? (Blocking for a story simply about title changes and redirects _is_ an extreme step; you allege POV editing also. This may be annoying, but blocking?)
