Well, it never was the ArbCom's job to have a finger in every pie.  It took 
over from Jimbo having to rule in the toughest cases.  And the process is 
still most suitable for ruling on apparently intractable cases which need a 
fairly transparent process.  Having cases disposed of by other routes is 
intended.
