Another reason he banned the Quick Fix was because of the euro open starting. He didn't want to scare them away with the quick fix, because it wouldn't be close to ETF2L, and would scare them from playing ESEA.
The problem with ESEA is they aren't consistent.
If the team captains vote on the items, then let them vote on ALL the items. If the admins are deciding what weapons are being used in the neXt season based off of how they want the meta to look, then let them decide about what weapons are being used and don't even bother with a vote.

While Killing didn't touch on this, I think the main issue with the quickfix is that it's such a game changing weapon that a decision on it needed to be made pretty quickly after the season was over. It wouldn't have been good for anyone if teams had spent the last month or so practicing with the quickfix only to have it banned about a week or so before matches for s15 start, and I think it's pretty safe to say that if left to a vote, it more than likely would have been banned. Being at LAN, it was pretty easy to gather that the general attitude towards the quickfix from the majority of the teams playing was pretty negative. I think Killing made the right call here, and in my own personal opinion I don't think any of the changes the quickfix brings to the game are positive and it shouldn't have a place in 6s in its current form.

Extine can you please stop with the X please. Sorry.

While the Quick Fix might have necessitated a quick answer, why wasn't a captain's vote held about it with the results (anonymized) made public?
Sure, maybe teams weren't settled immediately after lan but the vote that was held only had 6 outta 9 teams anyways.
It's about consistancy to me mainly. If ESEA's admin's want to dictate the meta, then do it. If ESEA wants the Invite Captains to dictate the meta, then do it.

That doesn't mean it's overpowered.
