Let me rephrase, you are absolutely correct! Wish I could edit these posts back, oh well. Lesson learned. Thank you @runicar

Thank you sir. I do believe you are correct.

In other words, set a post for 50% payout.

At payout, on the internal market, buy Steem with the SBD you've earned from the post.

Then Power up the Steem you've bought.

Under current market conditions this gets you more Steem Power.
