I'm definitely onboard with the examples, where influential people's votes influence others, or an influential person votes against an expected outcome and draws ires. The same is seen with asset holdings within known addresses, especially registered ENS domains. Known selling can mess with the future reputation in the community. Of course, it is super easy to build a new reputation from a new identity, a couple weeks in this market, but this is an unnecessary waste of time.

A weighting by history (say give 20% more weight to a vote per year the address has existed) and activity (say on HN to give more weight to people who post regularly comments that do not get too many downvotes) could have interesting feature for online communities
