Can someone please explain to me any actual guidelines-based reason for the parent comment to have been flagged and killed (I vouched for it)?

Many feel X, or gating access to X, is fundamentally unjust, superseding the guidelines. Feeling injustice converts the loss into a claim: "I didn't just lose free access, we're owed free access." The GP questioned whether the inconvenience is an injustice. The flags came because that question threatened the claim.

Free speech talk decorates a claim that, imo, doesn't really have much purchase.
