Looks a little unfair to me, too. A lot of people seem to miss the "disrupting Wikipedia" part of "disrupting Wikipedia to make a point". Just making a point is NOT a policy violation. Posting to a talk page is not disruptive.
Just about anything can be construed as a policy violation if an admin wishes it to be so. Our plethora of policies with plenty of weasel wording even inside the policy explanations is ample fodder for that, nevermind that even if we had copper-fastened perfectly-written entirely self-consistent immutable policy, it would still be open to individual interpretation.
The problem is unfortunately far greater than individual rights or wrongs, or even the general behaviour and conduct of editors and/or admins.
