I think it is acceptable for a committer or PMC member to revert a change, at 
least after some inclusive discussion or in controversial cases after a code 
change vote (which follows different rules).  The PMC is responsible for the 
repositories and released code in the end.

Where does it say that?!?!

I couldn't find it, but if it really says that, then that part of the guide
probably should be updated to remove mention of punishments! Instead, it
should say that we operate on the principle of honor and mutual respect. :-)
