Why are posts that users try to delete considered as “withdrawn” for a period of time as opposed to being immediately deleted. I know that you can change this period of time to zero but was just wondering about the reasoning here. I see that it says “unless flagged” so I am guessing that has something to do with it, but don’t fully understand.
