I was prejudiced against them, when I joined the hive I thought they shouldn't exist and all that, but over time we realize that their existence and function makes sense, because when there is an abuse of short posts, without purpose or doubtful content and guaranteed voting systems or profile networks are used to vote for each other and stuff, the DV helps a lot to equalize the rewards, because I think the premise that "effort = value" should apply, if the effort was minimal and the value too high, it makes sense to have the DV to correct that.
