The argument hinges upon the assumptions such as that it's important to Wikipedia to a) encourage 1st-time editing or b) creating different classes of users is a long-term bad thing.
I guess we shouldn't have admins if we accept (b).
Right!

Since you seem to be the chief Anarchist, shouldn't you resign your adminship immediately as an example? :)
Actually, if you check my userpage, you'll note that I am *not* a member of the Anarchists for a Past, Present, and Future World of Goodness.
So don't tar me with that brush! APPFWG may believe in using giant robots to convert Australia into a series of human-scale chessboards, games played over and over by unwilling slaves, but I sure don't.
Seriously, I think that most of the powers reserved to admins should be more accessible to many more users and that all of the powers should be more easily attainable.
