Currently they are rarely misused. History has shown they are rarely misused. Future is likely the same. In the extreme rare case it becomes a problem, the community already has a built-in solution already available to them.

I am entirely unconvinced that such is the case. If a whale chooses to nuke a content creator’s account, there’s nothing the community can do to effectively stop it, other than spend their own resources to offset the effects of the DVs. Problem is, that’s painless and costless to the abuser but costly to the community, and thus not sustainable.

As always, I greatly appreciate your feedback and critical analysis.
