Yeah, a busybody CoC committee could do more harm than good.
The way the CoC tries to address that is that the committee can't
initiate action of its own accord: somebody has to bring it a complaint.
Of course, a member of the committee could go out and find a "problem"
and then file a complaint --- but then they'd have to recuse themselves
from dealing with that complaint, so there's an incentive not to.
