I honestly gave up on curation for HIVE since I don't have much HP and my vote doesn't exactly push people over the tip usually. So I don't mind voting comments and I tend to return peoples value through HE tokens like LEO and SPORTS. So I think removing the convergent curve will be a good thing. I don't like that those who vote comments get reduced rewards.
As for the reverse conversion, I think its fine since I don't change HBD into HIVE much lately. I think having liquid HIVE is more useful.
