No I disagree and why I try and keep it in the 75-90% range and never drop below 70%. I have been down to the 20% range before and it is terrible being in active waiting for it to recover. Curation plays a big role in your account growth and why I do pay attention to this.

Curation doesnt change at 20%, its the exact same. You don't need to wait, its a myth.

50 votes at 20% is the same as 20 votes at 50% or 10 votes at 100% the curation is the same.

Yes I know, but for constant growth to take pace you keep it in a fixed window of 70-90%, once you drop below that it does hurt your growth. Consistency is the key to maintaining growth and why I stick to my 80% rule for HP.

that it does hurt your growth

No, it doesn't.

Maybe someone told you that, I see that you believe it. I am telling you - it does not. Mathematically the income from curation is the EXACT SAME no matter your VP.

The only difference is giving out more votes worth less compared to less votes worth more. Some people like to see their votes worth more. But the total value of votes you give out is the same, and your curation is the same. That's why VP exists, its a dynamic system that only lets you give out the exact same value no matter how many votes you give out.

I am telling you that you believe a myth. Its wrong. I have posted and proven this mathematically several times. Its not true. Please consider that I might be right about this - because I am. I work very hard to dispell this myth because I prefer people understand the truth about how things work.
