No. Doing the proposed would make adminship less of a big deal, becuause it would cause adminship to eventually include all trustworthy users.
Adminship stopped being about being a well behaved editor and not abusing the tools long ago...

Obviously there was no consensus that these editors were trustworthy; someone is not "trustworthy" simply because you believe them to be so. And consensus is still an important part of the Wikipedia process.
