I thought that "picking at scabs" referred to reintroducing deleted comments.

The way I use the term, "picking at scabs" means reopening wounds that should be healed. The antagonistic post was identified and rebuked. The poster has apologized.
I did not remove it so that others can see what is not acceptable in an ecumenic discussion. For posters to continue targeting it is "picking at the scab."
But I will remove it and the sidebar if the posters refuse to let it go.
