In the end, when there are 400 million people on Steemit, content and WIT will rule, but in the beginning it is a bit much to ask of the public to follow that rule. This is the Blockchain and it is unrealistic to ask people to rely on content alone. To require content alone would also require a "hard fork" and that is risky for the whole platform, especially if it doesn't work. Let human nature run it's course. Anything else brings probable religious paradigms and this blockchain model won't function to support paradigms.
