I like this. Reddit should not be allowed to remove r/* because they don't agree with the politics of the subreddit. To enforce it, all members, individually, should be eligible to arbitrate the removal. Given the arbitration cost burden to the company, this would make them think twice.

However, it _is_ Reddit's platform. Do they own it or not? If they don't own it, then who does? What incentive do they have?

If people were paying reddit directly, this might make sense. But reddit has to make advertisers happy. They pay the bills.
