The real issue in many ways was that AMA members had divided loyalty, some to
their clients and some to the project. An AMA member couldn't say  something
like "After talking to my client, I'm now convinced that my client will not
understand NPOV and even if my client did understand he would ignore it".
Furthermore, no form of plea bargain works well at that point. The people who
go in front of the ArbCom who got AMA members were often people who would have
had little or no interest in anything other than being in charge or at least
have their POV in charge. No amount of AMA representation would have changed
that.
