Why doesn't HN allow you to change your vote? Seems awfully arbitrary and heavy-handed. So you don't vote arbitrarily, and avoid being heavy-handed.

- kalvin 18y agoHa, that's the exact opposite reasoning to Aza Raskin's "use undo instead of a warning"... this is "make it irreversible as a warning" http://www.alistapart.com/articles/neveruseawarning http://www.alistapart.com/articles/neveruseawarning I think allowing a vote change here makes much more sense, FWIW. For the same reasons allowing post edits makes a lot of sense.
