For that reputation voting, bots will need to be excluded, or accounts like @berniesanders will have all the rep. I will be interested in seeing how that is managed. Several witnesses have argued vehemently with me that it isn't possible, while I pointed out that far lesser programmers than Stinc employs have managed to exclude bots.
While complete exclusion of bots and socks is desirable from such a mechanism, perfection is the enemy of good enough.
I'll settle for good enough.
Good enough has great value in itself. I agree.
