The "reason for consideration" field is a request to the
editor. The idea there is to ask
vroom and others to
delete duplicates, add code tags, edit un-editable nodes,
and move nodes to other sections after they were already
pinned down.
I'm way too lazy to justify every vote, Often I just want
it to move up above another post or to reward the person
for asking a good question. More importantly, the current
vote system encourages people to vote on multiple axes;
coolness, humor, completeness, wider applicability, golf,
power, speed, and even sheer volume. If you switch to a
new system now, you are leaving all those old posts out
of any new markup. I think unless there is a major flaw
uncovered in the current system, that we should hope for
vroom to stick to small, well reasoned changes and not
totally revamp something that is honestly working quite well.
