I definitely find myself having an addictive experience here; the dopamine rush from having an opinion validated is similar to what others may feel on Instagram or the like. Sometimes I refresh compulsively, hoping to see an integer go up. I don't really see a point to include the number of comments in this omission though; I don't see how that would create a dopamine loop for anyone, and it seems to be the main thing that commenters in this thread are averse to losing.
