Is it normal flagged posts can only be edited once?

I just edited a post that had been flagged by the community. When I realized I could add the suggestion for people to PM me why they flagged it so I could either talk to them in private about it or just improve exactly what it was flagged for, the edit button had disappeared. Is this expected behaviour?

I guess it might be supposed to stop trolls from completely changing the post and then arguing the flag was unjust but if that were the case, we don’t really need that here since you can easily just view the post editing history. Also it stops people from correcting typos which isn’t the end of the world but kinda awkward.
