User blog comment:DaNASCAT/Introducing New Moderator Opportunities For Community Administration/@comment-25739558-20160114182929

I feel as though the incorporation of chat moderator into the Discussions Moderator group honestly just negates the idea of having chat mods and thread mods. The way I see it, where would you even have a use for a separate chat moderator if you could just a sign the user to moderate all discussions? Why not just eliminate the chat moderator group, as there is really no need for it anymore. The comment control for Discussions Moderator is, in fact much needed—it was a hurdle I had when I was a Thread Mod, and responsible for comments as well. But, the chat moderator right is stretching a little too far for what is useful in team management.

And if Content Moderator can un/protect and un/delete, why wouldn't they also be able to block? In fact, this is the same sort of response I got when mapping my own custom rights in a similar way. I'm either missing something, or not understanding the underlying logic in the structure of these groups.
