I understand that. But Reddit upvotes don't decide how newly generated currency should be distributed. The issue is that news sans commentary takes seconds to post and well-researched articles take hours. If "articles" such as this are accepted, over a long enough period of time these kinds of posts will outnumber think pieces, art, stories, and the like... because it's "easy money."
