I think that’s the point. They know they can’t manage moderation, don’t yet have a governance structure to support adding a lot of mods, etc.

Defederating as a means of controlling growth while you build the capability to support that growth isn’t awful. As long as people still want to be a part of it once you can get a handle on it.
