She complained about someone's behavior; PyCon staff talked to everyone involved for a few minutes in the hall; everyone went back to their seats and watched the rest of the presentation. No one was expelled or punished in any way whatsoever. In what way is that some sort of "zero tolerance" punishment that "exacerbated" the situation? Isn't that pretty much what any conference on any subject would do anywhere in the world if they received a complaint about attendee behavior?
