My own stance on an issue like this is that, it's never stated anywhere on the steem blockchain that people can't form a curation trail or have alt accounts as long as they're not abusing the platform with it.
Also, i want you to know that the system is designed in such a way that people have the right to split their investments either into a single account or their alts. However, it's a user's discretion to decide whether they want to have their sports token in a single account or they want to have it in their alts. If you choose the latter, that's not against the rules of the platform and you can read it here👇

And lastly, people have the right to choose whoever they want to vote. If someone decides to limit their votes to certain people, it's their own business and we cannot enforce it. Chastising people for limiting their votes to certain people or for calling them abusers for selling off the curation rewards on their alts is just like we are trying to control their freedom on the platform.
The bone of contention should be,
Is the said user using the alt to self-vote his own comments?
Is he writing hogwash and then using the alts to promote it?
Is he writing tons of posts at regularly intervals to rape the pool?
If you raised any of the aforementioned points, it would have made much sense instead of labeling someone an abuser for limiting his upvote to certain people and also splitting his investment in several places
