It isn't enough because authors want to get paid from the pool but a great deal of the pool is going to crap that will should never appear anywhere near trending. Hard to advertise success if the content that should get rewarded, isn't.
Yet with different algorithms, that crap wouldn't reach trending. Then, as less of it reaches trending, then the drive to get the price high enough for trending disappears, because its not the price that's dictating it.
The way Steem interfaces do this is up to them, the way Steem does it is up to us.
Yet the Steemit interface is still often the first interface that people encounter. Can people now sign up for an account via another interface without actually having to go through the Steemit one at all? If so, that would be good. At the moment, most people find out about the interfaces after starting on the Steemit one. How many have turned around and not even bothered getting an account after seeing the Steemit trending page?
I'm most curious how the new curve will affect rewards for comments. Will they mostly all be dusted? What do you think?

it is not their drive to reach trending (other than some of the app announcements), their drive is the profits.
Yes, there are a number who are creating accounts nowe including @steemmonsters and partiko i think.
