It would be subjective of course. For that reason alone, I wouldn't want to be serving on a Baseball HOF committee charged with making these "asterisk" decisions.
But generally, I would say it would depend on the following:
- Egregiousness of offense
- Perceived impact on results
- Resulting notoriety
- Public revulsion
- Lack of contrition / repeat offense
When you apply these criteria, then some of what you mentioned becomes less murky and easier to decide upon.
