Not allowing fluff was the norm Elsewhere, and I consider it the norm here unless explicitly stated to the contrary. I am not aware of a community here that has stated they like content-free greetings, closings, and the like. I would therefore feel free to edit out such fluff, preferably shortly after a post is written so it doesn't bump things later. I do agree this should be up to each site, although we could set a default here for cases where sites haven't made their position clear. Over on EE, we have. See the <i>To the Point</i> section of https://electrical.codidact.com/help/asking. I have edited out fluff a number of times there. If you keep a place clean from the start, there is less objection to each individual cleanup action.
