Sorry to jump in again on the topic, that's exactly the why a CoC is necessary: it lets the community state what is the expected behavior, and the procedures to follow in case there is a violation. Obviously toxic behavior shouln't be admitted, even Alec's comment is contemptuous to Kirk. Human interaction can open unexpected Pandora's boxes, which put the community at risk. Avoiding this risk is the whole purpose of CoCs existence in first place, thus if we care about the project long term well-being we should welcome the institution of a CoC.
I said I would not write for long time, but I have to heart this project and I feel that this issue must be resolved in a quite radical way, purifying the project's social places and development places from toxicism, so that people finds a welcoming project and is enticed to stay and contribute.
