My feel about this is that one-off behaviour doesn't generally warrant
anything else than a private slap on the wrist - we all make mistakes, we
can all be angry one day and shout at someone or whatever, and that doesn't
need to lead to the user being marked as "Officially A Bad Person" (I'm
sure there are exceptions, if someone "one-off" doxxes another user for
example I'd be happy to take public action, although I'd like to think
that's unlikely to happen in MB).

If bad behaviour is consistent and requires serious action, I think it
makes sense to make enough information about it all public that it doesn't
feel like "wtf just happened" when a decision is taken.
