This is great @paulag.

of course, my only argument is the self-voting metric as that has never been a great indicator considering people trade votes.

or, those with small votes who have powered down a lot (and may still be getting large support). So, they can't contribute much in value to others because they have extracted it all but can say 'I don't self-vote'. I find it somewhat disingenuous.

Of course, this is just one metric on the list but something I think should be thought about as I think that those who do get support from the community have a responsibility to give support back. Many can only offer moral support going on how few have powered up earnings.
