What I like in your feedback is that it echoes the « let’s do better mistake

question what's the impact on wikimedia project and a community-driven
process, I would suggest that any redistribution of the funds done by the WMF
would follow the same rules.

about the job from the early planning
stages (ie. well before the job was advertised)? Did you seek professional
advise on how to manage the conflict?
In the UK, I think it is normal for a trustee to resign at least before
they apply for the job, ideally sooner.
