People don't like change so even if they aren't gaming, they fear that a change will cost them what they do have. A loss weighs twice as heavy on the mind as a gain and the future change comes with no guarantees so most choose the "better the devil you know" route.

how will it affect me is all i care about. as a wanna be manaul curator with will i be better off? oh and am i better off now just upvoting comments rather then being a big late voter?
I am pretty sure it would be better for you as a manual curator and for those you support.
Right now, it is likely you are better off voting comments as you would get a 25% return almost guaranteed as there is unlikely to be other voters before you. Of course, it means that you can't benefit from being an early voter which can return a great deal more.
