Just allowing people to report errors isn't a problem. The problems are acting on those reports without first verifying the true facts, and removing entire articles simply because some of the facts in that article are inaccurate.
If someone removes information from an article and states on the Talk page that it is incorrect, it tends to stay out. If an edit war ensues the article tends to get protected. I really don't see any difference in principle. The one practical difference is that the calls to Danny seem to represent a credible threat to the Foundation and the reputation of the project, hence escalation to protection is quicker.
