I know this is a complicated subject with numerous methods of acting on fraud, abuse, or even simple mistakes -- but I don't see any reason why more information about exactly why something is removed in an automated fashion is bad for the user or bad for the business; assuming, of course, that Google even care to support their product.

I'm not suggesting they throw people at the problem and provide on-call personal support to everyone.
