Wut? They could just create their own subs and be mods that way, its less work than trying to ban huge swaths of users. They were also making it so mods could see all content in their subs

You didn't understand the point. Try re-reading it.

Creating and growing your own subs of major topics is almost never viable. 99% of alternative subs go nowhere.

And how are they going to take over a sub? The mods can still see and deal with their stuff if they're effectively spamming a sub

But a large number of subs are already echo chambers, if the mods are onboard with it you were never going to change that anyway

Your argument seems to be that it will create a specific problem, but that problem already exists and there are already easier ways to achieve it
