Question about news for moderation tools

https://mods.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/16693988535309

As I'm sure you have already seen this latest edit provides some info about moderation tools. I'm no mod so I'm asking, is this a change you hoped to achieve, concerning moderation tools? I know the paid API thing is still there, but besides that, are these good news if they follow up on them?
