Well, as with everything on Steemit, it is hard to know what it actually means. Some posts giving answers (and I am open to more suggestions):

So what?
I am not going to deal with the economics. but why will anyone comment on a post? Look at my wallet my main reward was from interacting with someone. We had a discussion. Now no one will up-vote a comment because they already have to choose wisely where they cast their vote. We already have to fight bots and everyone technical skills. Your average Joe will stay away from Steemit. Unfortunately.
