No 15,
I agree that it it will eventually come to an end and everyone will need to get on with each other again. I can see that from a strikers point of view that BA may appear to be heavy handed, but in return will you conceed that to some who went to work the use of yellow pens and XXXX baggage tags appear intimidating and bullying. As you will know form diversity training it is how the intimidatee feels that is key not what the intent of the intimidator was.
all the best
