    I think it’s to limit damage from subreddits like WSB. If a bunch of your most active users own stock, they will be slandering WSB and calling for the ban of the subreddit when they eventually want to short it.

      Reddit has enough of the same half crazed energy Tumblr has that I suspect quite a few users even the most active site would fuck the site over for fun.
