    This is a cool article and all but there is no reason, to me, to believe in a mechanism that would make those new mods somehow worse on average than the old mods. Mods order was just seniority mixed with interpersonal drama with whoever was there before them, up to the guy who happened to be there in 2009.

    Moderation was a sad fiefdom that was never good, these few in the article maybe just happened to have been good ones
