If Durova "simply screwed up", fine, her bad. But if there's a group of like-minded editors who were colluding on this and she just happens to have had the bad luck to take the fall, I don't want the rest to meekly and secretively creep back to whatever they were doing behind closed doors that resulted in this happening. I want to make sure this attitude and this bad process is rooted out.
Ha! You want to see the "WTF????" messages that went round afterwards. I mean, we like Durova and are doing our best to help her get over this, but really, we have been pretty blunt with her.
Yes, that actually would be quite reassuring. The lack of information about what's going on over there has IMO been the main force driving this controversy beyond the one particular action Durova took.
