I'm guessing the agenda is "this is definitely going to lead to a bunch of anti-islamic discussion in the comment section, and I don't want to deal with all that (with limited mod tools)"

I'd put more blame on reddit administration than the mod who's trying to play the safe side to keep the sub in existence.

That could've been a very different and still valid response though.
