As the GP stated repeatedly, it doesn't scale. Number of interactions scales with the factorial of users. The moderation team itself also doesn't scale. Good moderation is very difficult and requires trust. More moderators spreads the trust thin and greatly increases the chance that you end up with one or more bad moderators, who in turn damage that trust.

That is just not true. That's a count of possible relationships. There is a limit to how many interactions a human will perform in a day, and it's not related to how many other users there are on the platform.
