Yeah, I agree, I think we'd see it being used a lot more if the "cross-post" didn't have rewards declined. While most newer users and those without a lot of autovotes wouldn't mind, those who do and are practically those with a lot of "attention" on hive aren't keen to use the cross-posting feature cause they'd screw over their autovoters which is something I reckon 90% of them wouldn't want to risk.
Thanks, wasn't aware @ecency also has adopted the cross-posting feature!
