With all due respect, would it be a step forward to at least have more specific guidelines when it comes to the reasons for the convening of a Bishop's or SP Disciplinary Council? Based on my conversations with these sisters, I would have thought Sister X would be subject to a DC, and Sister Y to "working it out" with her Bishop. I understand there are even more discrepancies in behavior with the exercise of discipline by mission presidents. Some are quick to send even minor offenders home; others take the time to work with individuals and keep them in the field. In this regard, I would hope the handbook would be revised to be more specific and not subject to quite so much interpretation.
