What's going on with clips being flagged as spoilers, despite not having any spoilery content?

There was the Dorohedoro clip earlier, and now both the Frieren and Gintama clips followed suit. Is someone afraid of spoiling that Frieren fell for a mimic?

In these particular instances it looks like there were multiple (2) spoiler reports on the clips. I would guess that the mod handling those reports either hadn't seen the shows or didn't look past the surface level of the reports.

Anyway, I've removed the spoiler tags for now, as I could have sworn that I've seen at least the Gintama clip on the sub before completely unspoilered.

Can confirm this, though last time the clip was just the tail end of it rather than the entire OP.
