I wasn’t complaining about getting downvoted - I could not care less about the opinion of the median voting user on this site. I was simply explaining why anyone who disagreed with my straightforward statement of fact was impossibly far off the mark, with citations. It’s not reasonable that commenters should be prevented from engaging with people who vote on their comment. If anything, this just disincentivizes people from actually explaining why they disagree with something.
