MODERATORS
Maybe not for reversion, but I could see them keeping the edits, since it doesn't cost them much to do so, and it could be useful for spam identification or legal purposes. For example, if an account posts spam, and then edits their comment to hide it/skirt around moderation, or vice versa.
They would also have the benefit of the edits inflating the size of the data that they're selling, which wouldn't hurt.
