You may be right. But what if the curation trail is being manually created based on the quality of the comments (as it appears to be in this case), and as a result, the person whose auto-vote has been applied goes to look at those comments and adds some meaningful engagement (if appropriate)? Could that possibly be a good thing?
That's what i will be doing. See this comment to see an easy way to review the trail of upvotes on comments
To explain, I think upvoting comments is extremely important, because that´s encouraging engagement and interactivity (a key feature on this social platform compared to others), I do upvote ALL meaningful comments on my posts to at least above the dust treshhold.
But comments are very different in nature and not all warrant an upvote. A comment trail is fine, but only if those are manually selected. The header was about auto-voting comments which is a completely different story.

Ah, i see. Yes the title is mis-leading. I will correct that. Thank YOU for your engagement.
