Aha! I caught a whale! If it makes any difference, I'd like to express to you as well that the problems here seem to be down to one thing only; The strenght of the downvote and how it has been put in very few hands + unnessecarily still labeled a "flag" and given a confusing icon. If the downvote could be rebranded, given a different weight and used like a normal downvote, most of these discussion could never have started in the first place.
Good night!
