Maybe, but you can't read every single topic that comes through steemit, so you just pick favorite authors and vote on them regardless of topic. And after their quality shrinks, you select other people.
So instead of focusing on articles, you focus on authors. And there is also a passive money making element here.
You have 100% voting power, that is a potential asset, so you are just using that asset to make income money via curation.
