Petitions that are appealed and overturned already cause sides to cry favoritism.

Decisions are already questioned and heavily scrutinized.

The public right now can not even begin to understand the nuances because there is a lack of consistency to outcomes from the same situations. The raid rules change week to week and month to month as the petitions happen behind a curtain with rules being told to one group and not the rest of the community.

A public petition would allow for an accessible repository of rulings, reasons, and meted punishments that people could begin to rely on. If we do X, then Y will happen to us.
