If curation rewards are not eliminated how are moderators going to be rewarded?

There is one reward pool from dilution and the allocations in it are more or less arbitrary and have been changed multiple times. If there is a good reason to buy out voting power then a portion of that rewards pool can be allocated for that purpose. It doesn't have to be specifically the curation rewards.

And curation rewards, frankly, have been cut so much that even if they were redirected I'm not sure that would be sufficient incentive to serve as an effective buyout. But again there is no reason to fixate on one particular slice of the pool.
