There is a genetic condition where cilantro tastes like soap to about a quarter of the population. Washing kids mouths with soap is/was a common punishment for saying dirty words. Collective punishment is a war crime according to the Geneva convention.

Is putting cilantro in a communal dish that will force people to essentially be punished by having soap in their mouth technically a war crime?

No. A pot luck is, well, pot luck. Some people love cilantro. Some people hate other stuff.
