Exactly. Apologies are cheap. They weren't kicked out by mistake.
OTOH assumptions are cheap too, and I would venture to guess nobody in this thread knows anything about the hierarchy of the ADA, its most influencial insiders or their motives. We tend to shape those things according to the picture that satisfies us the most, and usually make it the simplest picture that invites the most hate. And saying this isn't an excuse or apologism, it's just staying open to improvement.
edit: And yeah, based on the douchevotes people seem to be taking my comment as support for the ADA, which it is not - they were definitely wrong to kick those guys out. Just saying all we know is what's in the article, and people who do the wrong thing can still eventually do the right thing if they're motivated.
Whether we do or don't, criticizing the end result of the ADA's structure is fair game.
