Are the eligibility criteria (not) the same for everyone?

No. Removal criteria is not the same as acceptance criteria.
People here quote acceptance criteria, but it is irrelevant for removals.

For example, if an adults-only location is already in game, it does not meet removal criteria. Gum Club / Shooting Range - #13 by NianticAtlas

IOW Don’t bother reporting things for removal that really exist, unless they could cause Niantic legal trouble (like a school, single family residence, fire station, etc) and are one of the reasons on the REJECTION screen.
