I fully understand your point, and I agree that ideally flagging a whale will return the funds to the reward pool and make it available for the minnows.
What I'm telling you, is that the situation is far from ideal. And just as soon as you return funds from rogue whale 1, rogue whale 2 will snatch them up. There are far too many rogue whales and too few flaggers. So in the end there is no actual good done. Just a false sense of duty and accomplishment.
Want a solid example? Everyone is focusing on haejin right?
Alright type username mandela, check out his posts to see his circle voters and see the rubbish they are doing. About 8-10 of them. No one is flagging them. Everyone is busy focusing on one guy and letting hundreds slide. So in the end the minnows will never get access to any "returned funds".
Except the other whales are going to do what they do regardless of those getting flagged, so the returned funds do benefit everyone else.
My point to you is, whales flagging whales is fine. There's no downside to the average user, and potentially an upside.
Alright. If you say so.
Hope you eventually see it how I do.
Don't worry, I never will.

Just curious, is there any particular topic or genre that you curate on?
I am Co-Founder of @steemstem. So my account trails the @steemstem account, which curates Science Tech Math Engineering, and occasionally some other forgotten subjects like history.
I also participate as a part time curator/voter for the project.
