Well, yes, but it's so hard to find a remedy that properly says "You're a petulant child and should go away."
Well, thats only one kind of remedy, and its not appropriate in most cases - everyone, even some of our most controversial editors, being volunteers who have contributed usefully in one way or another. In that context, its a bit more petulant to be the one to say "go away," and thats why wiser people learn to not say it.
Given the above situation and just the general fact that circumstances change, what may have been a "bad idea" a year ago might be a good idea today --particularly in the context of finding remedies that are something other than absolutist decrees or embarrasingly indecisive punts to other authorities. Varied degrees of punishment -- community service -- what radical concepts!
