Here are my reasons for supporting it.

a) The high road is served by enabling serious, even occasionally contentious discussion.
b) It's better to have challenging discussions here instead of G-D
c) Tempers flare. I think most people deserve second chances.
d) Several of the people in question took part in good productive discussions prior to leaving during one or another of last years blowups.
e) Nobody likes being 86'ed. It's a move that should be used only when necessary because of PR ramifications.

All of the above is one person's humble opinion. If it blows up... mea maxima culpa.

Seven people were removed from the list btw.
