That FAAO mentions: "The identification of operational errors and
deviations without fear of reprisal is an absolute requirement and is
the responsibility of all of us who work within our [NAS] system."
Careful of pulling this from context. The word "operational" above
applies to both "errors" and "deviations".
An operational deviation is NOT the equivilent of a pilot deviation.
An operational deviation would be something like a controller letting
a pilot enter another controller's airspace without a handoff or other
form of coordination.
Operational deviations are what are required to be reported under that
section, not pilot deviations.
If what you say is true, can you provide a pointer to the correct
regulation/order that does mandate that ATC controllers report all
PDs?
