There's all the political decisions to make as to what do you do with existing Likes, Retweets, etc, what oversight will there be, if any, on monitoring if an edit was just say for a typo or it's a completely different text after the edit (and do they implement a system to auto-detect the % change and then auto-flag for manual review), do you notify users who previously viewed it or perhaps only interacted with it in some way that it was edited "x%", etc.
I assume they'll have to have things like version control, so all prior versions are readable for crowdsourced moderation, if not then that's a bad decision IMHO; some past decisions of theirs haven't been rational, and seem more fear based - so maybe they won't even have version control in the name of "privacy" - pretending that the person didn't previously said what they said, and that somehow it's deleted off the internet and everyone's memory if they delete the tweet.
