That applies to newcomers too. For example, if you want to lock a thread, simply comment "!lock".

I think it could increase engagement for a while, but over time it might drive down engagement over time as mods make it more challenging to participate with content. The Fediverse is still struggling to scale, so I think having a more natural transition from Reddit to here will be better in the long run. People getting confused and frustrated with a beta social platform means they might try it, hate it, and never come back. If it's gradual, people will follow more of the diffusion of innovation scope of adoption.
