Yes. I find it bizarre that Jeff uses Tony as an example anyway, given that Tony is no longer an admin. Mind you, I have always thought that Tony's request for desysopping should have been greeted with "take a wikibreak, come back in a fortnight". I can't think of a single edit or comment form Tony that did not improve the project. Still, the upside is that he now edits much more than he did as an admin and clerk, so the project benefits there.
