Then perhaps the "balance" you are looking for is, "Suspend posting 
rights on the enumerated lists only to the extent that his posts are 
explicitly moderated instead of simply being discarded, and encourage 
chairs of other lists to limit their actions to the same." I see nothing 
in BCP 83 that forbids this outcome. If the behavior seems to have 
improved over (insert time of your liking), post another PR-Action 
withdrawing the suspension.
