Is this an honest assessment? Could a non-admin (or even a single admin) go against him and not get banned? Honestly?
People disagree with Jimbo all the time, and unlike many others in similar position, he usually feels compelled to answer questions and deal with criticism directly, implementing compromises where they can be found. But the issue wasn't really about his provenance, but the limitations of his human powers to be aware and in charge of everything - in this recent case, on matters of particular (but important) policy and process. Is the community *not to be trusted with certain policy changes? And is Jimbo therefore expected to take a more direct of formalized role in this area?
