I'm no expert either on curation rewards and I always reserve the right to be wrong. 😂
But I really liked the distinction you drew. More often than not we get confused by symantics, especially in the euphemistic world we live in. In order to make good decisions, we need the best understanding of the matter that we can get, and if content creators think they have the right to be upvoted while curators think they have the right to decide on content, then we are the blind leading the blind. Good job fleshing out that misunderstood and misleading concept of entitlement.
"The blind leading the blind" That should have been my title! 😂
Thank you.
A hug.
