Agreed. But I am unsure of the numbers here.

My 1% vote at around 18,000 SP is worth 4 cents. Is 4 cents not enough to gain some curation rewards in almost all cases, even if it is 0.001?

It's not that I wish for any curation with that vote weight, I just choose to share my vote out.

If it is now even more profitable curation-wise not to do this, are we not likely to see less votes going out to newer members?
