Then again if it puts a damper of value extraction by farming comment votes, then it might be worth it.

I don't really understand, but maybe we should just do away with votes and reward people from reads? That's the logical conclusion when all voting is deemed "not worth it".

How would you verify that someone has read something?

The front-end might. There are pages that react to what you are doing on them.

Ever been to a page where you are greeted with a chat when you've been reading for a while?

They never engage the chat before you've scrolled through a page or two. It's almost like they knew you had been actively reading the page.

That's all easy to automate.
