If you could explain why you think that and tell me where the possible weakpoints are, we can try to find them and improve the system.

well for one thing it would definitely be a macro downward pressure on rewards from steemit, which is still young. This might be good later on but right now do you really want people thinking steemit just made it harder to get rewards and is paying out less to us. Even if that isnt true overall that is the vibe this limit gives out, its like steem austerity for no real reason other than this guy doesnt like bikini posters earning money.

Actually, it's not a limit of steemit itself, It's a limit each user can decide he can think a post is worth. If everyone thinks that the Bikini post is worth 400$ it will still be 400$ nothing changes, the idea behind this is to nudge the people to think about if it is really worth all of that.
