That sounds like a terrible idea. Unless people can eventually use the network however they want, it's all a waste of time.
The future is not a BBC, in fact, the future probably looks more like Twitter/Facebook/Snapchat/Vine than a 10 000 word BLOG
The most valuable content for on STEEM so far has been short. Every "high quality" post I've found is plagued by long-winded tl;dr'ness that only makes sense to steemit curation teams and completely misses the mark in terms of internet view ability and value.
My 2c: the same message, conveyed in the least words possible, is way more valuable than the same message with all sorts of word-sugaring.
We're already dealing with 10's of thousands of people who actually read over their posts and look at how they can make it longer for steemit, which is totally nonsense since to make a more valuable post you should normally try and condense it without losing info.
A sad state of affairs and one that it looks like these decisions might drive deeper into our psychology if we're not careful.
