This is a proposal that will encourage administrators to not act responsibly, by destroying the principle that an administrative action can be overturned by another administrator.
That's in fact one of the core assumptions of administratorship, and the reason we keep emphasizing that it's "no big deal". Being an administrator *must not* give anyone unilateral special powers---only give them janitorial tasks, that anyone else can undo if there wasn't community consensus for the original change. Such a huge policy change change is a significant overstep of the Arbitration Committee's authority, and therefore cannot be regarded as binding.
