RE: Although subjectively downvoting posts to zero is anathema to me, the Layer 1 ability to do so must remain (for now at least)
Yeah I get what you're saying, people need to get used that mostly (hopefully) it's just for disagreement of rewards, else you'll also find hivewatchers on you if it's otherwise.
With our OCD project we do make an effort to let people know why they're being downvoted when it's about abuse/plag, that way we can also reward the finder with a vote for their time on the comment. Other than that I guess people can also calculate why by checking who and what that account is known for downvoting in the past, something sites like Reddit don't give you the privilege to ever find out behind their closed databases.

I'll support OCD with a bit of a delegation :)

What you are describing… the “normalizing” of the Downvote… this is NOT freedom. It’s oversight and is signalling to the entire crypto marketplace the entirely wrong message.
Layer 1 needs to preserve the freedoms of ownership. As it is the DV can be used to “own” another account financially irrespective of the account holders rights and even good intent for the blockchain.
This mentality perpetuates an unfriendly and unmarketable Hive Blockchain and ultimately undermines the utility, value, and investment underlying the blockchain.
Our foundations matter because this is what freedom is built upon. A social environment like this is not one that can compound the communities ideas to their fullest.
This is only generating unneeded controversy and that is going to end up being the catalyst to driving away bright minds and their ideas.
We need to rethink all of this…
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to reimagine new and better ways to human.
Missing the train on another Bitcoin Bull Run could be a huge blow to this blockchains ultimate success.
Please reconsider the DV as a main feature.
I believe that if we do not… this isn’t going to end well.
