Fred, please *read* what I write next time. I used the words "technically and
legally" - that has *nothing* to do with our policies and social norms (what
you call "procedures").
A business still has the technical and legal ability to kick you off their
property any time they want and for whatever reason (even no reason) even
though they almost always let you into their establishment to perform certain
transactions.
My point was that editing Wikipedia is not a right - it is a freely granted
privilege. The trouble with very longstanding freely granted privileges is that
after a while people start to think of them as rights and then start to make
demands.
