Because for admins, while your reasoning makes sense, the main issue is probably trust. Adding an admin to your instance is basically giving them the keys on everything, and allowing them to destroy the whole thing.
I know instance admins tend to be really reliable, but I also understand why some might be reluctant to add 4 different admins (let’s say 2 more per time regions, and assuming you need 2 additional time regions to cover 24/24) to their instances.
Do you mean mods, or admins?

Mods not admins, at least we can stop spammers quickly.
Only mods can ban users at the instance level based on my experience (I’m a mod on a few communities, and can only ban users on the community level)
I see, I thought lemmy has something like Supermod. They can ban users on instance level, but they don’t have all admin’s privileges.
Unfortunately, not at this moment. Hopefully something we’ll see in the future. Would help with this kind of issues.
