You are are rare person being able to keep a level head.

While I don't want to get personal, Sara went public earlier with her own misunderstanding:

https://stackoverflow.blog/2019/07/18/building-community-inclusivity-stack-overflow/

A quick synopsis is she introduced a change, there were lots of objections, she too them all PERSONALLY, and stewed all weekend. Then she read them trying to find the insults and throwing shade, and found ... oh, it was rational disagreement and reasonable suggestions that disagreed with the policy!

I don't know who removed you from moderation, but the non-Apology and the explanation not relitigate post seems to show Sara does NOT have the temprament to interact with the community in this way. I don't think SE should take action beyond that, but if she is emotionally too quick on the trigger and will wield a ban hammer she should be relegated to somewhere else where she can be productive without causing problems.

We are all different - as we were created as stones, not bricks. I know someone who is excellent when he writes but now has a "podcast" but every comment seems to distract him saying they need to be banned, or redirects the subject, or something else. He doesn't have the temprament to do intereractive live podcasts. He should stick to writing.

There are many things I avoid because I know I won't do them well even if I'm technically not merely capable but would excel - if I had the temperament.
