    It sounds like you’re describing doublespeak from 1984.

    Simplifying language removes nuance. If you make moderation decisions based on the simple English vs. what the person is actually saying, then you’re policing the simple English more than the nuanced take.

    I’ve got a knee-jerk reaction against simplifying language past the point of clarity, and especially automated tools trying to understand it.
