I have noticed some more downvoting than is usual - and, yes, sometimes on well worded and apparently good comments. I've never seen much problem with downvoting for disagreement myself - but I do dislike this idea of downvoting instead of commenting your disagreement/counter view etc. (I personally don't think a downvote is worth much if you can't support it) I think it would be nice to see a social pressure to add a reply if one doesn't already exist explaining disagreement etc. Both for the benefit of the commenter and other readers.
