Disabling Reddit features is something they've had for quite some time. The way I usually saw it manifest in the past was that feeds and comment pages would go read-only if the site was overloaded (voting/commenting disabled). It doesn't surprise me that they have kill switches for other aspects of the site too.

Some of these types of sites/apps can basically turn off any feature at any point and still have a fully functioning app. Pretty neat design.
