Forgive me for stating the obvious, but we're actually -- or at any rate some sectors of the project are -- very very good at doing exactly that. For example, there was that big noisy case a week or two ago where a sysop was summarily desysopped and/or banned for saying he was thinking of handing out some deleted article text.
Actually, the big thing there was that he suggested he'd provide some deleted article text that contained personal information to a bunch of banned trolls, without adequately researching the situation first.
Ironic that you're now commenting on it without adequately researching it...
