I suggested making it easier for more people to have "some" power, without lowering the bar for people to attain the "absolute" power an adminship now entails.
I'm also suggesting that without the burden of such powers, perhaps some of the more incivil admins might be able to take a load off, relax, and leave the really heavy stuff to those who could handle it better and without being incivil.
The answer is simple. Since RfAr is considered a major roadblock to removing adminship, make it easier to do. Then, people who you may have trust issues with can be more easily promoted, because they can easily be removed. I'm much more likely to vote support on a candidate with a long history, but some questions about, if I know that if they abuse the tools or continually do the wrong thing, I can work to get them removed. That's not the case currently.
