I had numerous instances in the past where skillful third-party

So having people that can do that and are publicly known address for

have more "what we want to do and what should happen" and less "what
should not happen and how badly we'll punish you", it would be much
better.
^^ That thing. +1. (That doesn't mean have no punitive process, but
that should not be the focus.)
I agree.
And I suspect mediation is the only realistic remedy. Someone can
continue to be abusive and cause damage after you've exhausted all the
punishments listed in the COC RFC.
Beyond being ineffective, these actions could be counterproductive.
Imagine someone experiencing the emotional level of a rage-quit or being
threatening. The COC Response Team reverts some commits and wiki edits
and says: You were warned! I don't think this is a promising way to
deescalate and bring people back in the fold.
