yes you are correct flagging is allowed and used for disagreements in rewards and other things.
im not saying haejin is right im saying all the griping is not necessary if one can simply downvote and move on.
of course this is a platform that supports discorse so i guess thats not really a reasonable conclusion.
i also think that if haejin has the money to correct those downvotes with an upvote it becomes a futile effort that wastes voting power lol.
if you ask me all the whales are TURDS that hoard steem and votes within their circles
