I actually think people should be complaining to, or even complaining about, the community health team significantly more than they are. People on that team are paid to address problems like misconduct/harassment/assault. Complaints like Maya’s should be a key performance metric for them.
In my view, there should be a stronger default of people like Maya contacting the community health team to say “hey, I heard about women getting ranked in a way that made me uncomfortable”. And the community health team privately contacting the rankers to say “hey, you aren’t helping our goal of a warm professional community that welcomes a wide variety of people and incentivizes them to care about doing good over being hot”. Some might find this draconian—to clarify, I don’t think disciplinary action is justified here. I just think these conversations would be positive expected utility if done well.
