FWIW, I think this is the answer, or at least this pinpoints the problem: scale.
I feel like if social moderation were a purely technical problem that we as software engineers would immediately recognize it as, y'know, NP-hard, and not even try to solve it (above a small scale). Would you actually try to compute the Ackermann function with large inputs? No, what's the point?
