Yes, that is a good point
But for new people, who can not adjust their voting power it means they can just vote 10 times instead of 40 , so they will interact less with other steemians
Also , p.e. in your case you are giving 70% of your votes to people you know or you want to support to , so there is just a 30% which goes to contents you consider are worthy (don take this as a critic to your strategy)
And just a question since I know you are better informed than me
Are the whales still on the "no-voting" experiment?because in this case the reward will be reduced once they vote again
