I did not downvote, but a) if you're going to say "Arguably this is a bad thing," you should provide an argument (or, if you don't want to say that, you can say "I don't understand this, can someone please explain" instead of "How could it be") and b) on HN downvotes are a valid way to express disagreements.
- johnisgood 8y agoWhile I did not really have an argument, I thought I let someone else who may think the same come along and provide an argument. Or are we all to assume that it is actually inherently, or necessarily a good thing until proven otherwise? I understand that I could have said exactly those things to help on the matter. I am aware of down-votes being a way of expressing disagreements, and I don't expect everyone to provide a reason for doing so.
