I just hope the ArbCom follows through and imposes the ban even though Ottava says he has left. If they dropped the matter, he'd be back in no time.
Meh. No "ban" is being imposed -- if the O.R. account is disabled, our hero can simply start another one and pick up where he left off. It will probably be better for him, considering the baggage he is already carrying.
Of course, it would quickly become obvious because he wouldn't be able to keep from making his trademark irrational attacks. I think almost everyone (aside from a few of the most dogmatic "banned means banned" types) would be happy to have an Ottava sock that edited productively while also engaging with others like a rational human being, but I don't think it will happen. Most likely he only did his productive work in order to increase his own life expectancy as an editor, knowing that if all he did was attack people without doing content work he'd be banned quickly. As a sock, he'd have to edit quietly to survive, and that would leave him no incentive to contribute.
