I think that's a little harsh to say that he doesn't have the
confidence of the community.  I think a *better* reason to remove the
founder status would be so that he's not carrying out actions himself
(it's all about checks-and-balances).  He can participate in
discussions and make a decision as "godking", but then why does he
need to carry the decision out himself?  With the position of
"godking", he can just ask a local user or steward to carry out the
decision instead of doing it himself with a founder flag.
