That comes from making excuses such as "being human" and he was "baited", which look quite reusable, since sysops will still be human in the future and may be "baited" again.  However, it wasn't just your statement, but the general sense of  "deference" to other sysops.  The sysop community should act as checks and balances upon each other, quickly correcting questionable actions.  Their job is protect the community, not just from disruptive behavior below, but from abuses by each other.
