I disagree fundamentally with your position here. It's technically possible for Tor editors to edit; all we have to do is unblock Tor nodes (or for them to disable Tor), and they can edit. It is the social and policy-based processes that prevent Tor users from using Tor to edit. I happen to agree with those processes (having cleaned up major messes from unblocked Tor nodes on enwiki), but it's not a technical problem, really.
I'm confused exactly what you are disagreeing with? The consensus currently is that Tor users should not be able to edit raw. Thus the issue at hand is that there is currently no technical solution for allowing Tor users to edit while still being able to block them. If you want to change the consensus and unblock Tor users from editing, then it is indeed a social/policy issue.
