I see how it could be implemented with some mod team but the entry point could be a "sub owner" but with overlapping subs.
Alice likes Bitcoin and goes to nostr/Bitcoin (kind-11 with t-tag=Bitcoin) but there's a lot of spam and "spam", so she decides to clean up the space. She reacts with ✅ and 🚩 to approve or block.
n/Bitcoin gets too busy, so Alice invites Bob on her team. She updates her moderation (d-tag bitcoin) file to include Bob.
Charlie disagrees with Alice on how to moderate and builds their own moderation team.
Now people can choose to see n/Bitcoin, Alice/n/Bitcoin or Charlie/n/Bitcoin.
But how about voting? To make the system work for people new to nostr, voting works through who Alice or Charlie follow. The strongest votes are Alice and Charlie's and then come their follows and their follows' follows.
Votes are +1 and -1 but anybody can ✅ and 🚩 mark posts and replies, suggesting the moderator copy their marking or maybe add them as moderators to instantly give weight to their markings for all others.
So your client would not show posts you marked with 🚩. It works as an instant hide. Your client lets you delegate approval/blocking to others or others and their teams.
Voting/approval/blocking could be weighted using my follows, Alice's follows, a mix of Alice's and Charlie's follows, the different mod teams, ... The client could decide to never consider blocks that are not my blocks or treat new posts as blocked, too until approved.
This feels like the simplest logic that might actually work and post collection could start with the sub "owners". Get Alice, Alice's team, all the team's approvals and referenced kind-11 posts, all their follows and their votes.
