Should moderator actions be in public or in private?

Speaking of WhatExit? and public modding. I still have not received an answer from him on whether or not he hid my post from everyones view until he could comprise his defense and shut down any replies to it post. If my post was really so bad that enough posters flagged it that it was automatically removed by Discourse, why then after he had his post ready, did my post reappear totally unmodded and acceptable. What exactly did all these posters find objectionable in my post? Did all mods receive notice of this terrible post of mine but come to an agreement it was ok in such a short time? All of this in about five minutes in a thread that had no posters after I posted. If only the mods worked this fast on everything.
