Hm that's pretty interesting. Normally, in crypto land we're sad when charts are going down, but in this case: looking good.
But anyway - great job, holger! Keep us posted!

I feel like there should be a different cost for authoring content and curating (commenting). I would accept higher authoring costs to let smaller accounts engage in more commenting,
Not letting small accounts comment, I will feel will have a negative impact on onboarding new people to the platform,
I agree with you about comments and newbs, but feel I should point out that commenting is authoring. Curating is voting, not commenting. I just hope that new folks and small accounts are able to satisfactorily engage with the community. If they're not, they won't wait around for their mana to recharge.
On a purely technical level they’re the same thing though. A “post” is simply a top level comment. The RC system is theoretically designed to measure resource usage more accurately, so it won’t make a non technical distinction like that.
Try not to worry much yet. I have faith. @holger80 has started doing some tracking showing costs of actions are falling. It’s a dynamic system that needs input & time to calibrate, hence the warning pinned to the top of Steemit and the posts talking about equilibrium needing to be reached. I’m interacting as much as possible and hope others do the same, as I think it will actually help the RC system stabilize & normalize costs sooner.
I thought one reason for changing the system was to prevent spamming - so making comments cheaper would be counterproductive for that.
