Bad people cut both ways, and I think it's impossible to design any kind of document (CoC or otherwise) that can force assholes to behave nicely. All these discussions about formalizing relationships, expectations, and behaviors are in my opinion a foolish exercise of programmer logic in social situations, where you abstract away all the difficult human interactions behind something that resembles a function call and then use it everywhere. In reality, all social structures are unique, all relationships take time and effort to build, and a large amount of a programmer's effort will be spent in navigating human structures. The fantasy that you can put up a CoC so you can finally solve the human issues and get back to programming is the ultimate programmer dream, but it's not something that exists in the real world.
