Totally agree, again. I've said it many times before, the limited payouts create an ephemeral culture - not a long-term forward thinking culture.
Once Steemit grows by multiples it will make huge difference also not locking comments on old threads. That makes no sense. Art does not expire, recipes do not expire, music does not expire. People should still be able to vote, comment and the author get paid perpetually as long as it's up and generating votes.
Not only that it takes away the almost "Instant Money" appeal to get people started today. We live in a culture that wants instant results. There goes part of the appeal sadly for many people. So we lose 21 days of payout and have to wait a week. This to me in not an improvement as a content creator. One can only hope the price of Steem goes up to make up for this.
But I do love that we can have split payouts now.
