The saddest thing is that work on the comment deletion race condition situation is all lost; the whole thread will likely repeat itself at some later date.

And 'lost' is a particularly good description here. Because the analysis is still there on user pages but it is now impossible to link to said comments directly.
I hope the ban on the post can be reversed. This intervention was annoyingly destructive (at the 'nuisance' level).
Yesterday, someone moved one of my posts from Main to Discussion without telling me. Again.
I encourage the site administrators to show some basic courtesy to the posters who provide the content for the site. I believe this would be a better way of doing things:
1. Have a policy on what has to happen to move a post from Main to Discussion. Who can do it? How many admins are there who can do this? State this policy in a FAQ.
2. When you move a post from Main to Discussion, make a comment on the post saying you have done so and why you have done so.
