If it really causes a lot of work for the moderator(s), then it needs adjustments. But I think that it might also cause less work than the current practice, since there is no longer a need for the moderator to read along with all potentially sensitive messages.
'Leading edge' would mean exposure in magazines?!

If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
