The blog you linked to is talking specifically about bureaucrats. Having community consensus is a common means to oust a bad bureaucrat but only because there is no local authority that can do it. That blog has a link to another blog about bad admins and there it is clearly stated that communities should try to get a bureaucrat to demote the admin before contacting staff. In addition, upon being contacted, staff will review the situation and make a decision. Although the decision could potentially be to remove the admin per the consensus, staff are not obligated to come to that decision. I believe the procedure for dealing with a bad mod is a lot closer to that for dealing with a bad admin then that for dealing with a bad bureaucrat.
