That's silly, any Reddit moderators that actually care about deleted/edited comments can easily configure automoderator to remove the comment. There's no need to go on a frenzy to ban every single person editing/removing old comments.

And trust me there are a lot of people editing/deleting comments right now.

I did even edit and remove old comments via Redact with keywords and more before that fiasco they all just got now super sensitive because their power tripping janitor position is in danger.
