Comment:

 I've added a draft of a custom workflow based on the assumption you want
 to discourage (not prohibit) authors to publish publicly without thinking.

 To ancourage them to post privately, use drafts and finally have their
 post reviewed before publishing. This is a work in progress, and I'm
 hoping to recreate the current default settings, with a number of
 additional adaption options so one can easily jump to other posting
 procedures. Let's say with incorporated setting options for private,
 public, password and pending post types, so others can easily figure this
 out for themselves. With each of those states of mind as a prefered
 approach.

 A have to confess I'm impressed with what you can achieve within meta-
 boxes.php by only adding rules. It's equally unintuitive, unfortunately.
 Changing those rules is certainly what you don't want to be spending your
 time with…

 A draft for an alternative meta-boxes.php for WP 4.1.1 - a private posting
 approach - is attached to the original post (this is not an answer no how
 to move on from here, it is roughly what one hopes can be achieved by
 working with custum post status though).
