Why do you think I would feel there is something wrong with it?
There is a failure mode where someone uses others’ willingness to trust their vote advice as a manipulation tactic, but in my original comment I suggested the idea of vote copying as a positive strategy in the case when you feel ignorant but don’t want to abstain.

I agree, but that does not imply the ignorant people, who were failed by the state, should project that ignorance into voting rather than abstaining.
