Next could be to forbid server admins to ban players from their servers - how could it be that this bad server admins revokes paying customers from valve the right to play on their servers? :) all cheaters are anyhow catched by VAC so there is absolutly no need to ban someone. Or maybe directly prohibit the use of rcon for all server-admins - they are just allowed to spend the money for server and start it but nothing else is allowed to them :D
