Yes, there would be less for sure, but they would still be the top posts on the trending page very likely... which in all honesty could make it look even worse if the top 10 posts on trending all said "voted for delegation payments" and had nothing else to them...

Personally I liked the idea of filtering all the posts that used a bidbot or delegation service and excluding them from the trending page. Only posts that were voted by users would show up on trending... though we would need that to be part of the DIP program or the steemit development team, which doesn't seem it exists at this point.
