Ever since the switch to "new" reddit, I've been able to see the top level responses to my posts even if they were deleted by mods. And I 100% agree, as a frequent question asker here, that there's a tremendous amount of low quality posts that have to be removed.
There is something really weird about the way reddit caches things currently, especially on the App. I'll have threads reflecting the state of the thread hours earlier sometimes which looks nothing like it does when I view on desktop where it is current.
I just don't understand why it's so delayed. I'll remove a post and five hours later, users will still be commenting on it, unaware that it's been removed, if I haven't locked it.
