Not certainly in that way. Speaking in your own language of metaphors, it’s as if accidents caused by unscrupulous drivers occurred all the time on a broken section of the road, so we don’t complain about unscrupulous drivers, we give examples and ask that the section of the road be corrected so that it was no longer possible to break the rules. Because only police reports, with such a system, do not fix anything.

The proposal of the OP to change the icon seems very reasonable to me, because there will remain people whom the newcomer will be able to ask for help, but this will not be visually related to prestige or elitism. It would also be good if we had a really working blacklist, so as not to meet these people in roulette.

You say that this is not the fault of the mentors, but there are people who cast a shadow on the mentors, and there are a lot of them. That is why many of the respectable mentors take off the crown. In this way, two problems could be solved at once. People who have a mentor status just for the crown will leave. People who want to help others will be able to act with a icon that is not associated with power and prestige.
