Ban quotes on mobile - it'd be nice to make the ban feature on mobile work more like Toolbox and include a quote of what the user said.

This is important. There needs to be an original copy of whatever was said. It's too easy for users to edit or delete the vitriol they post. Archiving and future proofing for potential arguments could save so much trouble. Reddit should focus on replacing everything mods do outside the site with built-in features. If it archived the original content we wouldn't have to do things like screenshot.

EDIT: Example, the removal reasons coming from an anonymous u/[sub]-ModTeam account. We've been doing that for years, but this is a lot simpler. Many mod teams created Reddit accounts named some derivative of [your subreddit name]ModTeam to share amongst the team, everyone would have access to the password and would share the account when it was deemed necessary to be more anonymous when commenting publicly. Reddit is getting closer to eliminating the need for that by giving us access to our own internal version of that. They just need to expand on it a bunch more.
