We can warn of risks such as you mentioned, wind risks at height etc, of course, but going off-topic and stating laws etc, this isn't the place for that.
What members do is up to them, they know the laws, well, they should because they have to know, there is no way around it, they have to go through them to get their credentials.
It's not even our place to ask if they have the right credentials either, that is up to them and the relevant authorities.
Going over people, going over roads, its a mini drone, 250g has been deemed "safe to do so" so another 40g or whatever it is ain't gonna kill anyone, it ain't gonna stop a car in its tracks, well, certainly no more than a 250g drone would. Yes it was over the limit for a 250g but they were actually flying in the 500g category A1 transitional, "No intentional flight over uninvolved persons". that's a given, its automatic so no laws were broken in that respect.
The drone landed safely, so the "shoulda, coulda, woulda's" have no place here because none of those happened.
Are you saying that you have never strayed over 500m or gone past 400ft in the last what, 4 years? I am talking by even a single foot? because, whether or not it's 1ft or 10k feet, the law is still the law...
...this forum is about DJI products and their use of them, if laws have been broken and it's obvious, re above, it is still not our place to question the member and certainly not in public, for one its embarrassing, why not hit them in a pm, after all, it takes the thread way off topic such as we are now, although now, there is no longer any legitimate topic, not sure we could even talk about "removed" I wouldn't know where to begin lol.
Look, many of us break the law now and again in our lifetime, whether on purpose through driving or other means, we are not perfect and some like to take that risk. I bet there's a majority that has broken the drone laws, whether it be height or distance, heck, sometimes it's not even realising that you've even done it, e.g. going over height, I kept doing that with the mini 2, even though it's set to 400ft, it still goes over that for some reason, although I think I know why mind, I do not want to go over 400ft, no reason to do so, but it has done by about 40ft give or take some, I know the drone laws, i do not need policing, mistakes are made, some on purpose.
Who are we to judge?
