That sounds great.
Steem is still "new" and in a big picture view is on the cusp of reinventing a huge part of human interaction.

Many times "systems" can be great but don't match the current 'volume' ie they are not in a state of 'equilibrium'. I'd suggest this would apply to Steem at the moment.
The difficult part is how to fine tune, without over compensating.
But as I previously suggested, the core concept needs to be understood before any implementation can be effective.

I look forward to reading your paper.
