I don't have a skin in this game either way, but the discussion about the open letter [1] has multiple, mostly unrefuted and partially acknowledged posts claiming that the arbitration process was not working, lead to negative behavior remaining unmitigated and is in need of improvement.
The open letter itself acknowledges this fact.
If processes aren't working, sometimes a shakeup and ensuing drama is required to improve things.

- nsajko 7y agoSure, the Arbitration Committee and the processes associated with it are not perfect. But is an unaccountable, invisible and all powerful judge, jury and executioner institution like the T&S a good or fair thing? If you look at the context apart form just the Fram case, you will see that T&S behaves very strangely.
