Who said the problem was on enwiki?
If you think this issue is only a problem in some specific place or class of wikis, then say so. Otherwise, I would have to assume you consider it a problem that exists everywhere, including the large wikis like enwiki.

There are situations where not even the administrators of a particular community should be allowed to edit a page. A good example would be the pages that describe the copyright and licensing of Wikimedia products.

Since being full protected 6 years ago, Enwiki's current license page has been edited by administrators nearly 50 times. Most of those edits
consist
of modifying categories, interwikis, navigational templates, similar things. Those edits probably aren't essential, but I would still say
they
are useful.
Though hypothetically possible I can't think of any examples of an admin
on
enwiki modifying a legal page in a harmful way, which makes it seem like you have solution for a problem that doesn't actually exist.

Out of curiosity, was it ever used again after that initial action?

And it's high time it got removed.
