When a trigger-action pair is used to unpublish a post based on the content of the post, then it is impossible even for the admin to set the post to published, even through the admin/content/node function.

This makes no sense. Admin and possibly other users with elevated rights must be able to override a trigger/action unpublish setting.

My proposal for a solution is to exempt the admin/content/node function from any automatic unpublishing, particularly when the admin is giving the command to publish.

The equivalent function for comments does not have this problem. It works as expected.
