Another aspect to this is what is one legitimately operates in a small circle. What I mean is if one is interested in a subject that isnt widely popular, there might be only a few people on here who are interested in that topic. Hence, all voting would be among them.
For example, if bird watching was one's interest, is there a wide variety of people commenting on that subject? It might be just where someone chooses to steem and, suddenly, they are penalized.
A intelligent and thoughtful perspective @taskmaster4450.
Yes... In a case use such as this.... Someone into a exceptionally niche subject would either have to delegate a few votes to a curator.... or would have to expand into another subject. Or they would become penalized.
In this case.... to me, this seems to be a question of the lesser of two negatives. Should we save the bird watchers from a penalty, at the expense of the entire steem ecosystem? Would that serve the bird watchers if steem lost its economic value to an a flooding of steem on the market?
Perhaps.... there is another way? Yet.... we have not been able to discover it yet. So, until a better solution is presented....
Should we forgo penalizing niche circles at the expense of the entire steem network?
