One assumes that the other party has come out of this with no sysop bit, no credibility, and no chance of getting onto Arbcom. But they've also had *other* sanctions applied to them, because we determined they didn't have those to lose.
Here's the problem.
Durova's actions stopped the editing of one editor for 75 minutes, and ended with an apology.

At the end of the next paragraph - " as a corrolary, we have the assumption that both transgressed equally, which may or may not be the case but is certainly percieved as such here". So, you know, there is a perception in that initial post (and associated commentary) that Durova's misdeeds extended beyond a 75-minute block.
But, hey, I can see when an attempt to have a discussion about something in general terms is going to get sidetracked, so I think I'll abandon this one for a few months until everyone's forgotten the specific case and then bring it up again with the serial numbers filed off... :-)
