It's been a recurring theme, but the point is that we still haven't
figured out how to detect and head off (talk to, counsel, convince to
take a stress-break and come back, whatever) flameouts by admins and
longtime editors.

There's a difference between people chosing to leave the project, and
a project where the usual mode of leaving for experienced participants
is an antagonistic conflict incident blowing up.

That we haven't really come up with good solutions doesn't mean that
we should stop noting incidents as they happen.
