After reading this whole thing, it looks like the large concerns beyond minor clarifications are subjectivity and visibility of "wrongdoing". And I think those are perfectly sensible large concerns.
Subjectivity as a problem is addressed by there not being a single mod whose opinions are law, but a group of them to discuss problems instead, and by appeal being possible. Might it still be a problem? Yep. But then it comes down to that issue of trust.
Whether or not and how much offenses should be labeled and visible is always going to create problems. Whether it's too much visibility causing an us-against-them mentality, or too little causing accusations and conspiracy theories, I don't see how it can be perfected. Somewhere in the middle taking the least of all evils approach is probably best, and base it on what works for the community, but it's a difficult thing to experiment with. Trying out a system that doesn't work can do a lot of harm.
