My hope is that in practice it would be pretty rare for this rule to be invoked, although I think it does depend a bit on how the final rule is worded. The comment you linked arguing against human biodiversity is a tough edge case. On the one hand, I am a lot more concerned about people arguing for human biodiversity than against it, but one the other hand it doesn't seem like the end of the world if a prohibition on discussing the topic also took down comments like that.
IMO the forum rule I proposed is in my view the least important of the reforms/policies I suggested. The value comes more from signalling an opposition to racism/race science than it does from actually taking down a couple of comments here and there. Given how controversial the rule is, it would clearly be a pretty costly signal. That seems good by the lights of "making it more likely people of color engage with the EA movement."
