Hard agree on this. Especially if it leaves a community unmoderated, and unmoderatable due to the only mod being absent.
If you're creating a community, you should at least be attempting to run it. Not just making a land/power grab or putting your flag in the ground for the sake of it.
I'm glad you've raised this here, I was wondering whether to do something similar due to https://feddit.uk/post/114858
I thought it might be a good place to start the discussion. And I think it's good to have the discussion now, instead of in 6 months time.
Realistically...It's not an unsolvable problem if there are unmoderated subs down the line. But the solution is not particularly pleasant (admin overrides), so it needs to have proper community discussion. And (hopefully!) avoid the situations in the first place.
