Yes, not to mention the 'behind the scenes' where the moderators discuss disagreements in approach, what actions to take in some situations, need on occasion for PSA's to reiterate the guidelines or explain recent actions, etc.

An algorithm can't ask itself for feedback. I hope Musk does make the Twitter algorithms open source, that would be fascinating and put pressure on other platforms if it turns out to be eye opening or useful

To be fair, isn’t the whole GAN methodology all about asking itself for feedback?

But I think a more refined version of my initial comment is that if the users respect moderators, then moderation will be much more cohesive and well received.
