I believe you have failed to understand the nuance of how infractions are monitored. I doubt Community Standards wants to be in the business of monitoring infractions because it opens the flood gates for claims of selective enforcement. You can make claims as to what you believe Community Standards should be doing but it really doesn't matter. They are obviously doing what they have been instructed to do and I suspect there is solid legal advice behind their mission for the reason I already stated. As far as I can tell, they uniformly apply the deed restrictions under the reporting system they have chosen to implement.

If you want it to be up to the complainer to complain, then it is the responsibility of the Community Standards to MAKE that complaint, if they see a violation while they're in the process of investigating another violation.

If I am a Community Standards officer, visiting 1313 Mockingbird Lane for violation of the grey peeling paint on their front door, and I see a plastic pink flamingo on the front lawn of their neighbor when I park my golf cart in front of the neighbor's house, then it is my responsibility to point out to the guy at 1311 Mockingbird Land that he needs to get rid of his pink flamingo.

If I CHOOSE not to complain about what is right in front of me, then I am selectively enforcing the rules.
