That statement of the bleedin’ obvious is irrelevant to the matter in hand.

FWIW I didn’t even suggest RIPE was above the law. Because it isn’t.

I said you (and everybody) else should think very carefully about the consequences of turning RIPE into a lawyer-fest. In case you don’t understand that term, here’s a rough definition: having lawyers draft and negotiate all RIPE processes and procedures, mandatory judicial review for any document changes, all communication in WGs gets done through our respective lawyers, judges making consensus determinations, etc, etc.

True. However in extreme cases we can ban people for various forms of misbehaviour or abuse - regardless of the colour of their hair.

No matter. Can we please get back to a discussion of your deeply broken (and hopefully doomed) policy proposal?
