I understand the safety problem but why not making it possible to join the map only when invited ?
This way, only your friends could access the unmoderated content, which I don’t think is a concern for anyone ?
Also a “Tester” team role (no edit allowed) that doesn’t need KYC would allow for a slightly better experience imo.
EDIT: We now have Playtest Groups, which might do the trick ? (didn’t test it yet)
