I'm somewhat neutral on the issue. I agree, I also think that if a judge keeps it sealed for a short while, it's probably a reasonable thing to do.

It could equally be a symptom of regulatory capture; it's not like the judge gets to just do whatever they feel is fair (at least not without professional consequences).
