I can agree with that. You'd figure that if a large portion of the mods were stepping down, you'd want to open up mod applications beforehand so that you're not short-staffed, even for a brief period of time. I don't know what the norm is like for Discord servers when this happens, but that's just IMO.
Perhaps it's just that I don't like to assume the worst, but I'm of the opinion that this was just out of incompetence/not thinking things through. I've seen a lot of Discord servers where the mods/admins didn't really know what they were doing (I've seen a few servers collapse due to this), and I'd just assume this is another one of those cases. "Oh hey, why don't we make a NSFW channel? It'll be fine so long as it's behind a role!" Without realizing it may conflict with the ToS.
