wait. If I proxy my vote to someone and do after this nothing, the vote still expire?
This would proxy votes pointless. If I proxy to someone that cares, makes sense right?
As long the proxy cares and does something it should be ok IMO, because the holder trusts the proxy and as long he is active, its IMO the same as the Holder is active.
Or do I oversee something?
That'd allow someone to get around the vote expiry rule by just proxying to someone else and forgetting. This is meant to be so that if the account owner doesn't interact with hive governance anymore, then they don't have an influence on it.
