Jun 18, 2021 at 15:42 comment added Mobeus Zoom @Catija Thanks. I was confused about how that happened.
Jun 18, 2021 at 15:39 comment added Catija @ColleenV It's possible but there's a specific case on Chess that this user was involved in where the question was closed after three votes, where the mod was the third vote, and the question now has three reopen votes but hasn't been reopened (because this test is not active on Chess), so that's likely what this is in reference to.
Jun 18, 2021 at 14:23 comment added ColleenV @Catija One thing that did come up on EL&U's meta was that votes on the trial site's metas are still at 5 instead of 3. Maybe that explains why someone might misremember needing more votes to reopen than close.
Jun 18, 2021 at 14:03 comment added Catija There is no asymmetry. The system requires the same number of votes to close and reopen. There are specific people (like diamond moderators) whose votes can be unilateral, but no sites have mismatched numbers of votes required to close and reopen.
