Reply to 50% Author / 50% Curator Rewards Changes

Some businesses and apps may be affected, especially if they are fundraising platforms like Fundition and Utopian. Publishing houses will find it more difficult to setup shop on Steem because they have less share of rewards to give to their writers, it also affects frontends that rely on beneficiary rewards.

For example, with Utopian, they always end up voting last due to how thourough the review system works. A 50/50 split would lower the amount of reward going to the contributor and instead distribute it soley to the people who votes right before the large utopian vote. This could lead to people just setting up bots to vote on posts they know will receive a large vote later such as these.
