You're completely missing the point, chomping at the bit to scream "MUH GOVERNMENT OVERREACH"
This has zero to do with the legality of the content Rather it's a tool to see where the burden of responsibility, and other liabilities lie and it exists not just for your protection but the protection of the consumer as it is to them to know their rights regarding your service.
It's really no different than calling yourself a For-profit versus non-profit. Are you a publisher? Then liabilities for illegal content lie on you. Are you a platform? Ok, people posting illegal content to your site do not ping liabilities to you, and the offender is liable to be sued.
You get caught up in this "am I allowed to..." and the strict answer is: you're allowed to do whatever the fuck you want to, just know it changes where liabilities are. Under your example you're closer to a PBB as "Criticism of myself" isn't exactly discretionary. As I said in my examples, pornography is discretionary so in my example were you to moderate out user's pornographic posts you'd still be considered a platform.

Alright so lay out every single discretionary whatever, and leave nothing vague whatsoever please.
Also draw me a picture of how you prevent Twitter from classifying itself as a PBB or whatever to skirt this unenforceable regulation.
