"...with a 20 vs 80 percent investment,
you can't look at the value of my self vote &
compare it to yours with an expectation of
equal outcome."

I've never seen a better example of a strawman. Please point to any example of anyone ever demanding equal outcome that has anything to do with Steem.

How about you acknowledge the actual problem - Steem has hemorrhaged users, and that has kept a vibrant market for Steem from forming, keeping the price low. This is despite a trickle of rewards going to users, and the immense power of financial incentives. That means that the user's disgust with the flaggotry and profiteering on Steem has exceeded their disgust with Fakebook and Twatter, which should make the devs feel bad, because they are bad.

Playing logical fallacy games isn't going to fix the problem, even if you feel like you won an argument on the internet. Fix user retention. Make users feel rewarded, not scammed, and that will fix user retention. How is self voting gonna do that?

Lambos for whales will follow, and you might even get a Yugo, too.
