Yeah, I think we share very similar views and are proposing slightly different solutions to the same problem. We are definitely on the same wavelength 😀

I agree that bots are not necessarily 'bad' and more see empowering humans as the way to 'beat' the bots. I feel strongly that good human curators can easily outdo the current bot curators, and promote more quality content.

The big missing link right now is being able to connect the people with lots of SP with the humans that will do a good job curating. @smooth's solution is one way to go about it, but few whales are going to go through the trouble to do that. This proposal of delegated voting power will give whales the ability to do that with a lot less effort/work and risk than @smooth's way of manually doing it.

If the option was there, I'm fairly sure more whales will choose humans over bots.
