Can I point out that (as an Economist special feature on Web 3.0 pointed out) 2% of the accounts own 90% of the wealth. The "minnows" you speak of own so little of the platform that even all of them combined make little difference.

That is true, overall.
Minnow votes count for very little when voting for witnesses.
However, 40% of sp doesnt vote, liquid steem doesnt vote, minnows do count in the distribution of the inflation.
Minnow flags may be miniscule, atp, but they, too, add up to more than zero.
Burning flagged rewards would help, imo.
They may count for more than zero, but relative to the whales they have a negligible impact. Minnows, though, do have some majorities: the brainpower of this platform. Most of the writing talent and quality content rests with the minnows. Setting up different platforms is the best alternative. Something less unequal is a better plan, with maximum wealth ratios enforced.
More than that, though, we need a way of distinguishing good quality content from the rest. A system of finding posts which are likely to interest people and showing to them would mean that users can be more effectively connected, making them feel happier with the platform.
We know, they been saying that since i joined.
So far, nobody has devised a fix.
I think it fixes itself with enough time.
