View submission: Providing context to banned users
This is awesome and will certainly help mods ban when not using toolbox on desktop. However, I think the message can be misleading. While the post or comment certainly could be the only reason, sometimes it's only a contributing factor or the final straw. That's why the general toolbox ban macro that goes around starts with:
This {kind} may have *fully or partially contributed* to your ban:
(Emphasis mine for context).
It lets them know if may be more than just the post or comment the mod used when banning. I think some rewording would certainly help in this case.

That's basically passive aggressive in tone and will absolutely be counterproductive in terms of reducing abuse.
