i think i've never seen a twitch mod add anything to a stream or make it better
but i have seen mods make streams worse - even unwatchable - many times
they are purely subtractive to the experience
their function (preventing chimpouts in chat) is redundant. have you ever seen a vtuber get harrassed in chat? i've seen it maybe 1 or 2 times in a year, and she can just ban the guy herself (which is what tends to happen)
in the scenarios where some sensible moderation would be useful (ie. whispering users to please stop being spergs) they do nothing, mods are always absent in the rare scenarios where they could be of use. they are only present when it's time to attentionwhore and try to make the stream about themselves
