Wouldn’t the presentation of that be useful? If OP doesn’t mark it as solved, then I’d at least like to know that it was marked solved by someone with a solid background in the topic, and not just someone with the power to do so.

Surely moderation should be traceable and transparent as often as possible? This improves both of those factors.
