Coraline Ada Ehmke has also been known to stir up shit when she doesn't think her CoC is being enforced aggressively enough. She basically treats the document as a way to Eich people she doesn't like out of any open source contribution, as happened with the Opal project.
This would present a problem, except the Linux governance model doesn't actually confer power to a person or persons to exclude contributors from the kernel. Linus and his underling maintainers are still individually free to accept or reject patches from anyone. CoC complaints would be handled by the Tech Advisory Board, but they can't issue orders or blacklists to maintainers.
Funny thing is, I suspect that this is by design, to make Linux development resistant to covert or open hostile action from the likes of Microsoft.
Pending a drastic change in the process, you can all keep calm and carry on using Linux.
