Do we see a double standard here at work?

Mr. John Garrigues et al (editors of Theosophy Magazine and leading
associates of the ULT) in The Theosophical Movement 1875-1925, pages
571-572 wrote the following about Mrs. Annie Besant:
"In Mrs. Besant's 'Third Volume' [of The Secret Doctrine, 1897] are
incorporated the private papers originally issued by H.P.B. to the
E.S., and in reprinting these Mrs. Besant . . . broke the seventh
clause of her solemn pledge as a member of the Esoteric School...."
Using the same "reasoning" as Carlos, should we characterize
the above statement as an "attack" against Mrs. Besant, as an
attack against the Adyar T.S.?
Does Carlos condone what the Theosophy Company writers have done in
the above statement?
Is it ok to question (or [to use Carlos' word] "attack") Annie
Besant but it is not okay to simply ask SIMILAR relevant questions
about Mr. Crosbie?
Do we see a double standard here at work?
