RE: Steemit has problems. I have The Grand Solution.
It's rather naive to think bots can be stopped in open, permissionless blockchains like this one. My as well embrace it and develop a culture for good use of it.
As for identity/stake arguments, please check out my sidenote and the top comment in this recent post: https://steemit.com/flagging/@kevinwong/the-value-of-downvotes-explained
How many bots can solve captchas?
How many phones can a botnet have?
Perhaps bots can't be eliminated entirely, but using those two readily available methods, 99% of them would be gone.

Your solution is predicated on the idea that anyone wants to correct the problem and not just go on milking the cash cow. I don't have a problem with people getting a return on their investment.
It's the pretense of promoting quality content that annoys me.
i.e. Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.
