Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.

The problem with seeing people’s votes is you don’t have context for why they voted that way. Did they upvote because they agreed, or because they thought it was an engaging counterpoint in an interesting discussion? Maybe they just thought it was funny or wanted the thread it was part of to be more visible. Someone looking at your votes could choose whatever perception they want if they decide to go after you for it.

True, really wish that could just be a them problem though.

It is different in that the barrier to a user looking at your votes and choosing whatever perception they want is currently much higher.
