    Moderators can still see it, but if a root comments gets deleted the entire comment thread gets hidden for normal users.

    I am not so sure I like this feature, but it is clearly intentional.

      Yeah, understandable, but very confusing for the participants and for moderators (but also potentially more easy on moderators). I swear I spent ten minutes yesterday trying to figure out what had happened in the entire thread or if I was losing my mind and it had happened in another group entirely … I think it would be fair to have at least a note ‘deleted by OP’ so users don’t start doubting their sanity.
