And if players currently in the game are bothered by it, and have gone to the mods, and are the ones who complained to the mods about the behavior, then sure. Yes, they absolutely deserve to be kicked out.

I'm not arguing that Phase isn't a shitty person. I'm arguing that people who aren't in the game at all have no place going to the mods with shit like "Oh I MIGHT app but not with this player there." The moment mods start kicking out players they have already accepted because an anon out there might join if they are gone is the moment that we stop believing mods have the players' best interest at heart. Even though Phase is a shitty person and absolutely does deserve to be kicked out, this is not a precedent that we want to have set.
