Opposite extreme is "who cares, let's accept something and sort it out on
the go later"

Talking about CC and KDE's CoC, it's not obvious for me how to perform
politics, religion, race, etc -- harassment protection correctly at
international digital community with provided rules.
I'm not saying we don't need rules. You said KDE's version looks better
comparing to CC. Archlinux version looks even better for me.

Anyway, I'm not a professional at such social tasks and want to step back.
I do not want to look like annoying person, just wanted to help with
controversial subjects.
I have no doubts about Qt people professionalism and happy do be a part of
the community.
