I have to admit, I was (and to an extent, still am) very concerned with some of the latest additions to the BL list. My personal fear is that UU will continue to develop without these, admittedly very powerful, threats and will become a metagame in which reintroducing these threats will harm it in a way that simply leaving them and accepting that a great deal of power creep will occur due to the generation shift would not have. Now granted, I am relatively new here and do not understand everything that makes a meta (though from lurking around on the policy review board I have gleaned, among many other things, that no one else fully understands that either), but a large number of Pokemon seem rather underwhelming to be the UU equivalent of an Uber. That being said, I am glad that the council has planned suspect tests for a lot of the bans that appear questionable and I will be watching eagerly to see how this experiment in banning philosophy turns out.
Out of curiosity, anywhere I can look to read up on the rational of some of these "quickbans" (not to be confused with the OU definition "this pokemon should have been part of the original ban list" of quickban). Weavile in particular came out of the left field for me. I'd eat my nonexistant hat if knock off didn't have something to do with it, but as far as knock off users go, Crawdaunt has much, much more immediate power and Mienshao is better at the "I threaten this mon I'm in on therefore you should switch out, oh wait I used knock off, enjoy losing your item and possibly your entire mon, I really hope that wasn't your answer to my HJK, lol" role, except replace HJK with whatever the heck Weavile uses to threaten stuff. In case I need to elaborate, Mienshao's main STAB, HJK, is countered by ghost types, so if you get mienshao safely in on something that is threatened by HJK, your opponent will have to either risk swapping in something that's not immune to HJK and risk taking some serious damage, or send in a ghost and risk getting nailed by knock off on the switch. Neither of Weavile's main stabs are as threatening as Mienshao's HJK, and ice does not have as much offensive synergy with knock off as HJK. Furthermore, since knock off is one of weavile's stabs, countering it is a bit easier as weavile is far more likely to go to knock off then mienshao is (the payoff if the opponent stays in on mienshao's knock off isn't as great for mienshao). The one thing that Weavile DOES have over Mienshao is that if you do get weavile in on something that it threatens, if the opponent shoots for a more offensively based counter, weavile can nail him with knock off and then follow up with ice shard for a possible KO. However, given that a weavile knock off can be read from a mile away, to swap in a pokemon that this can happen to is simply a bad move on the opponents part.
TL;DR Where can I find out why you choose the bans you do?
