For an example, check the WMC vs Cortonin case. Can content be decided by
which side explodes in frustration first? I submit that this may not be the
best of ideas.

A lot of it is that the AC has been too effective; so people start dealing
with others as problems to be dealt with, with the AC at the end of the
process. This is not a good attitude either.
