Yeah, that’s a fine enough workaround.
This came up when thinking about describing to flagged users what to do and my concerns about the messaging.
I realized that “you can just leave it hidden or delete it” wasn’t quite a just-fine option, even though it could certainly make sense in many cases. I don’t know the portion, but it’s gotta be a decent amount (majority even?) of bad posts from good people are things that should just never have been posted (versus badly worded posts that have other valid points).
