What do you mean by "legal reason"? If you mean, legally, we are not
required to remove a  legal image, then that's a tautology. If you
mean, there is no valid reason to remove a legal reason, then that's
simply incorrect. We remove images that are redundant, irrelevant,
possibly copyright violations, offensive, poor quality, ugly,
corrupt...
