Except there's never a good reason to punch someone in the stomach, but mods do sometimes need to be removed.

True, the analogy doesn't really hold in that sense. The point of not apologizing for the 'what' but only the 'how' still stands I think.

There are good reasons to punch someone in the stomach, such as them attacking someone else.

It seems very analogous: unprovoked punches and unprovoked de-modding are both wrong, but both are also needed to stop some kinds of abuse.
