I originally brought it up so we didn't have a literall wall of Kronii emoted in the emote page (didn't know they could be hidden). I think the conversation evolved from there to whether having emotes of active Holomems was a good idea or not idk.
I this case too, the emote is a varient of PauseChamp - a general emote originating outside Hololive. If it were something unique I could understand. But one as ubiquitous as a major Twitch emote I don't think we need to worry. Besides, the emote is used on the Kronii-cord. We have plausible deniabilty.IIRC I think the discussion progressed from that last point into keeping them but obscuring the existence of them. But at this point we are Chinese telephoning this.
