The alternative is to not censor, in any circumstance, to any kind of
audience whatsoever. I must confess I find this particular alternative
brilliant.

It is imperfect, as any other form of freedom of thought and
expression. But other options are more imperfect, not less, in my
opinion.

I think some projects (like the English Wikipedia) already reached
consensus on this issue.
