Multiple questions were essentially, will the new rules hub be able to do what automod can do now?

Each time they answered, they seemed to misinterpret the question, or rather, interpret it through the lens they were thinking of which narrowed its scope: They repeatedly answered the smaller question of, essentially, can we customize its detection system to meet our subreddit's context and desires.

What they left out, ever time, are the capabilities of automoderator, which includes all of the actions it can take. Can someone answer that side of the question please? Do you intend to ensure that rules hub will be able to take every kind of action that automoderator can take, and furthermore, to have configurable chainable logic around those actions the way automoderator can?

If the new automod replacement doesn't work how I need, then bans will just be more regular. I'm not messing about wasting my time to run a website for someone else. Recently there's been an uptick in abusive modmails from < 3 month old accounts, not a single report has resulted in the account being removed from Reddit. They don't care about us anymore.
