Free speech.
More seriously... our list managers (Julia, myself and Dave Land as backup)
have a very strong prejudice toward tolerating words that might be construed
as violations of our guidelines, such as the personal attack one. That
prejudice is extremely strong regarding such words directed at me, precisely
because I have pretty much total control of the list (except that ultimately,
the list can move off my servers).
It's a moral presumption against the use of great power, on the tiny scale of
the list.
I suppose I could try to wield my mighty powers to seek some sort of Pax Arnetta...
