IMO, that’s not a bug. It’s a feature. The CoC should just talk about inappropriate behaviour as a general concept and not attempt to enumerate every possible type of inappropriate behaviour. That way lies madness...

The current draft has an illustrative (non-definitive) list of unacceptable behaviour and that should be good enough.

BTW, the CoC should say “behaviour” not “behaviours”. According to the grammar police, behaviour is a mass noun -- like traffic, health, fairness, nonsense, etc -- and therefore doesn’t get pluralised.
