As a user who has been grinding out posts for user it can be frustrating to see little engagement and huge rewards since I know most of the time it's auto voting. The perception of this is difficult for retention because it makes it seem like only those who got in early get rewarded even if they are not furthering the content or engagement. I have been looking at posts for engagement vs hive value becase one day I think we will see a rebalancing as people want to make the ecosystem better.
