There are also, in a related sense, oppose votes with the commentary that admins have an obligation to "protect" other long-term editors. This is bad social policy, and ludicrous beyond measure. Admins have no obligation to protect other editors.
I meant to add to this, but neglected to. Basic human sympathy indicates that users would work to do so when possible, but first of all, it's not always possible, and second of all, if one admin neglects to revert a link or ban an editor, there are more than seven hundred who can do that in his stead. Let's get with the program here.
