I believe the objection is to setting up a separate CoC committee, rather than using the core team as the enforcement
mechanism.

This is more important than may be obvious.  Having a separation of the CoC committee and the organization that sets up
andsupervises the CoC committee is very important to prevent the perception, or the fact, that the CoC enforcement
mechanismis a Star Chamber that is answerable only to itself.  It also allows for an appeal mechanism.
