Why not ? We are adults who are perfectly capable of self moderating our own posts. Furthermore the mutee isn't being silenced, they are choosing not to create a post of their own showcasing what they think. Your system shouldn't rely on choice.
Why not? See the post you are responding to. And the mutee is absolutely being silenced, they are prevented from responding to all posts of which the person who muted them makes. Their points aren't silenced in general, of course, but that's like arguing "yeah, I punched you in the face, but I didn't kill you".
