I agree with locking the price of Steem to SBD, but so many people are against it. Especially the whales, who would have the most to lose. Making money off arbitrage and self-voting / creating fake curation trails (as in the example I posted above) is, for whales, free money. And that's what so many of the 'investors' use this platform for. It's a god damn money making machine, and all they have to do is make the 'appearance' of content.
A vast divergence between steem and sbd is just one other way for them to use this money-making machine.
