I think this thread itself is actually a good example of why we all like to stick with CD. Imagine if we all did use Reddit, and this thread came up. Now, obviously, it wouldn't because it's a moot point then, but imagine that you were proposing something else of the same nature.

Here, most people are not jumping on your side and are instead providing critiques and counterarguments. Nonetheless, a useful discussion is ongoing because this thread's activity is keeping it high on the Portal's Recent Activity list and people are seeing it. If this question were posed in a voting system forum, it would see a small reaction in the beginning and then be modestly downvoted (I presume, just based on how people are responding) because it's not a popular idea, and would be seen at the top no longer, essentially killing it off. None of this productive dialogue would occur, and that would be a shame. As a population, it takes challenging thoughts to keep us sharp and active, and we are making CD a better place because of it.
