You can reply to a comment removed, but you can’t read it unless you bother going to the log to check. If you don’t read something you don’t reply to it, do you? What do you say to a bunch of " comment removed by moderator "? Sure you can vote it too but again, you need to first figure out what it said, unless you’re just voting at random.
