Well you're just saying that the SPL team should be the committee then, which is definitely an option, but it is still a "committee" (meaning a small group of people) that will be deciding these things and choosing who can obtain SPS through gameplay and who cannot (which is the result of "implementing tools to deal with them").
These should ONLY target bots and not even remotely go close to anything involving personal bias, politics, etc.
If only that were actually possible. There is NO way to 100% determine if someone is using a bot or not. So whoever is in charge of determining that will have to do the best they can and then the question comes down to how to deal with disputes, which is mainly where personal biases and politics come in. That stuff is just human nature so it doesn't really matter whether it's an elected committee or the SPL team, if it's humans then human biases come into play.
So basically to me you're saying you don't support a committee to judge who can and cannot obtain SPS through battles, but then you say you'll support basically the same exact thing as long as it's the SPL team that is the committee, if I'm reading this correctly.
I absolutely disagree. Like I said, it should be a system only going after accounts for botting. This is not making them a commitee of anything else. It could also expllicitly mention that any ruling on any other basis than suspicion of botting would not be within the authority of this system. Of course, SPL team could ignore it and rule on politics or whatnot in secret, but they could do that already if they wanted to. It's not like you don't have the power to ban people at the moment. This would merely extend what falls under bannable behavior to include botting gameplay.
Like I said, it's never going to perfect, but you can heavily disincentivize it. It should err on the side of caution when making judgments. Just like a court would (or, rather, should). You might as well say it's 100% impossible to know for sure if 99% of crimes committed have actually been committed, therefore we should abolish the legal system. That makes very little sense to me. The people who go after bots, should only judge based on bot behavior. If any other motive is suspected, it should be cracked down on. Just like you should crack down on a corrupt judge or juror.
