Subreddits can't be destroyed, only made private, and then requested by someone else.

They can definitely be nerfed. Go private and no one gets invited. They can also block any new content except if on a post approved list, which could be as few as the mods. Each in effect would kill a sub.

Nah. The mods would just be replaced if they tried anything like that.

Can you script a mass-delete after privating (via API, while you still can)?

For subs you are a member of sure.
