Both of these proposals are going to have worrying knock-on effects. They are both trying to penalize bad actors, instead of trying to incentivize good actors. Do we really make these institutions better by making it harder for "bad" people to work there? Wouldn't it be better to make it easier for "good" people to work there?
I don't have good sound proposals, but bonuses for positive steps might be a good start.
Of course, this is completely different from the idea of QI, which, having worked for the federal government, I can see why it's important. Even if it has been over-applied.
