EDIT: I didn't notice the positive change to flag rules, but I'm very glad it went through! ^^
Original comment:
"I still personally see it as an abuse flag"
I do so too and so will most new users finding us here, because they go through Steemit.com.
That's why the flag should be removed from Steemit; Because hardly anyone uses it as a flag. Not even the founders of this platform.
