Why does MAL admins lock threads or moved threads to easily?

Today i am reviewing the forum post from the past couple of days looking for interesting topics to discussed. I saw a lot of interesting topics are locked, why? I understand that MAL is a brand and has to balance content moderation and advertisement friendliness but genuinely what's the point of forums if not a little bit of controversy? I'm not even asking for a lot, obviously some things have to be moderated... but why so willy nilly it seems?

to add to that i think moderators should not move threads... it prevents stuff to be seen, or often times they mistakenly move threads that are discussing different things. I think therads at large should be left alone as is if not super necessary..
