I can’t tell how universal you think this is, or what kinds of community, harms, or participants you’re thinking of. My general feeling is there is so much variation on so many dimensions that it cannot be generalized to this extent.
I also feel, for many informal communities (that is, not legally constrained), this focuses far too much on fairness and fear of legal reprisal (defamation? pretty much never matters except in extreme cases). It also focuses too much on what exactly happened, rather than how many participants feel about future interactions. Local uncoordinated bans of unpleasant people is probably enough in most cases, especially combined with private conversations among the authorities of different local events about what to watch for (sharing evidence, rather than results).
