Yep, there's nothing wrong about walled gardens. They might risk to become walled museums, but it's their choice.

Moderation is needed exactly because it's not a walled garden, but an open community. We need rules to protect communities.

  • Humans are no longer the only entities that produce code. If you want to build community, fine.

    • Generated code is not a new thing. It's the first time we are expected (by some) to treat code generators as humans though.

      Imagine if you built a bot that would crawl github, run a linter and create PRs on random repos for the changes proposed by a linter - you'd be banned pretty soon on most of them and maybe on Github itself. That's the same thing in my opinion.
