No, the only issue with the CoC is that it seems unable to resolve the situation. They have a CoC board but apparently it won’t act in this case.

I was judging from [1]: "I am contemplating to follow the #pytest exodus, I previously left the CoC team because of the issue at hand"

Yes - the CoC seems powerless to stop the problem. That guy recognised that earlier and dropped out of the CoC board; eventually he followed others who dropped out of the project.

From what I can determine, this is not one of those “omg the newfangled CoC is driving people away” situations, but rather “we have an asshole in our midst and, despite all the big words about CoC, nothing actually gets done about it, so I’m out”.
