Yup. A COC is supposed to codify that so it seems less arbitrary? I think it could be good idea in principle, if only to prevent all this pointless drama. Unfortunately, many of these seem to be pushed by political interests looking to gain power in communities, and that's never good. It seems like the most COC that would ever be needed amounts to:
"Be respectful. If someone violates this, give them the benefit of the doubt and talk to them about it before bringing it to the community. We're all adults here, lets act like it."
