I know that some people took KE very seriously and created their own views about how the "ideal Hivian" should look like... IMO, it's just ONE of the tools/measures that says SOMETHING about the user... It doesn't say ALL, it shouldn't mean that person is bad or good, but rather just one of X measures that delivers a certain message...
I agree with you that, without the context, its place isn't where it is placed now on Peakd, as a MAIN "attribute" of a user, along with reputation...
Also, if we had more use cases for HIVE, the token distribution would become irrelevant, as it is on many other blockchains... Hopefully, VSC will help with that, and I hope some future projects too...
