Rule violations (especially unintentional ones) that depend on interactions with other players, e.g. failing to drop engagement lines, should only be reported by the players present during the interaction, not by a viewer of a stream. If the affected player does not report the violation, then they most likely did not feel negatively impacted by it or dismissed it for some other reason. A stream viewer not participating in the interaction is not affected at all.

Violations that are not dependent on interactions (exploits, cheats, etc.), however, should be reportable regardless of whether it is by a player who witnessed it in-game or a stream viewer.

Couldn't agree more. If two players are satisfied with the encounter, RP or engagement, regardless if rules were broken or not, nobody else should get involved in it. It's as if I logged an Outcast snub and dueled with another Outcast snub in Omega-48 and one of us got slapped over it because some idiot that wasn't involved saw us and decided to file a report.

Player mutual agreement > rules, always.

Personally speaking, this is my preferred approach as well.
