Sometimes those judgement calls have allowed moderation that is at the very least poorly defined in the rules. I posted one comment complaining about a local protest about the current Palestine-Israel conflict that trashed my university's library and shuttered it for the next few months. I got a delete-ban over that for a "CHUD Opinion", which is very much not in the rules. And that is far from the first time that I've run into unwritten rules that feel like they're putting a thumb on the scales.
