If you look at smooth's votes you will see that he was considerate in using his power only to counter the stake of other whales and didn't vote with 100% unless it was necessary.
When you say it wasn't intended to give anyone anything back you're arguing that it wasn't intended to nullify the influence of whale votes on the reward pool in lieu of the fact that it was clearly intended to do that and that it did achieve that. I have seen it first hand that with just 300SP I could upvote 1 cent a post worth less than 2 dollars and with 10 cents a post worth 17 dollars. It wasn't rooted in selfishness or greed as they gained nothing out of it, calling it a false flag is very simplistic and short sighted.
