I'm not a staff member but I imagine that if a person is being disruptive enough to warrant the consideration of the nuclear option by the staff that they have probably already had some warnings or interactions with the staff indicating that such an action is a possibility if their behavior doesn't change.
The staff here are not a bunch of lawless renegades out to ban everyone they don't like.
