IIRC, Jimbo has the power to ban anyone from Wikipedia. So I guess that he
has the power to do anything else, because if push comes to shove, he could
just ban the people who flaunt his authority.

My point is that there isn't much of anything that Jimbo has to ask anyone
permission to do. And lawyering the political situation in Wikipedia isn't
likely to get you much traction in getting his decision reversed. Some of us
are glad that he stepped in and very depressed that people are nonetheless
still arguing so vehemently over such a pointless issue.
