In its current form (75/25), there is a big incentive to be an author who's powering down & selling constantly, instead of powering up and keeping the stake. What we need are authors that want to become big whales, because it's so lucrative. And whether you get 3$ or 2$ for your post - it's still a great deal for simply being an author/contributor.

There are no creators here that will ever become big whales. Pretending that there is even a chance at that is extremely misleading.
It would take 15 years for a creator to become a whale if he earned as much as 100 STEEM a day consistently. I dont think there is anyone here outside @gooddream with @xeldal support, maybe, that has even a slight chance at that. I wont count haejin or the bidbot posters that arent "real" creators.
If Steem ever created a stand out creator, even if it was just a single one, i dont think people would have a problem with any kind of split change.
You need to form an idea in peoples heads that there is something they can strive towards. Provide them with a goal they can achieve.
Theres nothing like that here. All youre doing with this is saying: "Hey, im bigger then you, im going to take some of your shit and if you dont like it... Tough luck.".
