No, you're not wrong. The latest hard fork creates a system of curators systematically voting on a block before the 5 minute curation mark.

Do I scoop a lower percentage with the knowledge of being the first voter?

Our new econ is very strange.

It is, but it does have an interesting dynamic. Perhaps instead of going back into the pool, early voting could burn the steem in @null instead.

What goes back into the pool seems to be >10% every time. It could be the SPS too which takes the cut from curators(?) let alone the early voting

Na, SPS has its own section. Not sure how the front end works. but the creator always gets 50%, the curators give some up. But, depending on what kinds of votes come in after, what they give up can change (I guess).
