Please assign "suppressredirect" right to patroller and rollbacker group on zhwiki. That is,
'rollbacker' => [ 'rollback' => true, 'abusefilter-log-private' => true, 'abusefilter-view-private' => true, 'suppressredirect' => true ], // T18988 & T39679 & T174978 & T201160 'patroller' => [ 'patrol' => true, 'autopatrol' => true, 'movefile' => true, 'suppressredirect' => true ], // T195247 & T201160
Local consensus can be seen at here. Thank you.

If I understand correctly this right every patroller or rollbacker on this wiki can now replace any page content with a REDIRECT tag, then be able to erase page history by moving another page on this one.
No, you are misunderstanding . When delete page over redirect is target page must be single revision.
