This last part of your post really stood out to me. Accountability is also a way for you to earn at least a little respect back from those you have wronged; some sort of decency is kept. The speculation and rumors that spread amongst the community may also sometimes breed animosity for the entire team, regardless of who took part in the wrong-doing. The longer this team/person holds out on some form of apology, the less and less respect, forgiveness, and sense of decency they should expect from the FIRST community and especially the teams they affected.
On another note- just read tonight that a team who will be attending IRI was able to fix bugs in their robot thanks to the Einstein report and I hope this is the case for many others, so +1 to all those who took part in the testing.
