I don't see how that would solve anything. That would just result in people streaming in the "normie" classification, but pushing the limits as far as they could go.

That's what we have now, and this would give them an option to target a different demographic.

They already have that option. They could stream on cam sites dedicated to adult content if they wanted to do adult content. They don't do that because they want to reach Twitch viewers not porn viewers. But, they know they get more attention from the Twitch viewers if they're doing nearly-porn.
