<p>This is my two cent. (I am not acting, of course, for the moderator in question.)</p>
<p>Last time I checked, moderator is part of the community. The precedent is that whenever they detect a post that is plausibly not in the form to be answered in a concise way, then they can temporarily put the post on hold eliciting information from OP (which has been done here).</p>
<p>Once the post is updated, it goes to the reopen review queue for the community to check it. I am not seeing any problem in it.</p>
<p>The key is proper interaction and accurate articulation and clarification of what has been sought in the closure reason.</p>
