I think "disruptive"/"disruption" needs to be defined for those who argue as VF just did:

"Disturbance or problems which interrupt an event, activity, or process" (Online Oxford English Dictionary)

Therefore, we come to a question akin to "if a tree falls and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?" -- "If a normally-disruptive thing is said and it does not interrupt the current conversation, is it disruptive?" Ultimately, until the recent crackdown, moderators and administrators alike have answered "no" to this question -- especially during the late-night hours that were often past 12:00 AM Pacific/3:00 AM Eastern. Answering "yes" to this question is what has caused the majority of the uproar.
