There is a non-zero administrative overhead for going in an re Resolving markets that were misresolved. Will Manifold levy a fee or fine against users who misresolve markets. To be clear this would not be against the market creator but against whomever misresolved the market such as "Trustworthy-ish."
Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, so I add "bad faith" to the criteria. If someone resolves a market mistakently or misresolves the market in good faith based upon the infomration they had then I could see Manifold wishing to not penalize these cases.
Not sure that this occurs enough in the wild for such a policy to be considered a mana sink in the manaconomy, but it is a thought. I suppose depending upon the severity of the fee or fine it could rise to the level of being a mana sink.

I think such a penalty would make sense, but I also don't think it's going to be necessary - the intentional misresolution rate is already way down simply because people know there's no point if Manifold will just reverse it later. So having to decide on a penalty might be more overhead than it's worth.
@JimHays announce doesn't even require that they do it, but I would imagine they would announce it before doing it even once.
