Serious question. Can't the mods delete the subs entirely? Wouldn't that be the biggest blow? To have to start all of these subs over from scratch?

They can, but Reddit can just as easily restore it, with a blank mod list. But based on their actions I wouldn't be surprised if they outright ban any mods that try this.

Would all of the people that subscribed to the mod still be there or would it be a blank slate?

I think this should be a last ditch, unannounced effort. Just do it and bounce.
