Because they want to paint it as a Reddit function thing, not a Reddit culture thing, even though it very much is a Reddit culture thing, stubbornly pushed by a bunch of rich skinny nerds who make up Reddit management and their funders.

It was crossposted-via-admin to r/Modnews, if that helps.

Because they’re scared of more backlash. They know they’re giving us a half answer, banning nnn for brigading, instead of actually taking a reasonable stand.

Because Reddit admins are spineless and know the mods are the only thing keeping their paychecks steady.
