I sure agree with that. There're plenty of ways to inflict pain without terminating the service entirely. 
Editor strike means not editing, it doesn't mean full service downtime.

Full-page banners or whatever else may work, of course. 

When writers guild went on strike, we could still watch old stuff, right, it wasn't pulled ;-)
If doctors go on strike, people are still allowed to live, retroactive disease correction is not done...

How do we deal with an editor who starts deleting his contributions out of spite?
