This is exactly correct and it happens on many sites that have upvoting and downvoting functionality (reddit and even digg back in the day had this; hell you can even find this on slashdot at times).
Ultimately I'm not convinced upvoting / downvoting is a good metric but I'm not sure what is better. The same goes or ordering; if you arrive at something on social media where you're the expert / can provide possibly the best feedback but there are already 100 comments on it? Good luck. You'll be drowned out.
This is a fun aside topic though :)
