The issue through this whole incident was the fact that Tim Peter's ban looked like intimidation rather than punishment.

The Python SC was floating a contentious proposal without justification, and Tim Peters forcefully called them out on it. Repeatedly.

And, in return, it feels like the SC went hunting for justifcation to throw a ban at him.

That is a bad look no matter what you think of Tim's actions.

This SC needs to go even if they are right, and Tim is wrong. Period.
