I definitely prefer the wording of the Contributor Code of Conduct over the Open Code of Conduct. I don't really see the point though. Everything listed is just common sense, and there is still a catch-all clause open to interpretation.

And, as I've been repeating ad nauseam, these codes of conduct fail to distinguish between genuine harassment and garden variety ass-hattery. Attempting to govern the latter is a fool's errand, and good for nobody in the long run.
I don't think anybody can honestly claim to have never fallen short of absolute professionalism and kindness. These codes of conduct are little more than pretexts to ostracize and publicly shame arbitrary individuals.
