Arbcom takes a lot of time to make quick and rash decisions. You hardly see extensive discussions by arbitrators on workshops or proposed decisions anymore
In my experience, this is not true. If there are real problems, then please bring me a specific detailed case in which the ArbCom really got something badly wrong. There is an appeal mechanism, after all. And in my experience, the ArbCom is eager to correct errors, examine everything to see where the evidence leads, etc.
Not all the work is public, and for good reason. There are frank and thoughtful discussions about how to best defuse difficult situations, etc.
