There are no admins monitoring our project channels however, those channels that are monitored have people kicked out on misbehavior.

Fully agree... I don't see how enable logging should be a limitation
for freedom of thought. We've used it in Zaqar since day 0 and it's
bee of great help for all of us.
The logging does not remove the need of meetings where decisions and
more relevant/important topics are discussed.
