The Steemit account does not curate. Why?

Asked by glenalbrethsen Promote - View in Hive.blog - Audit

Dpoll does. Dtube does. Busy does. Other dApps do.

Why not the Steemit account?

Would it do more harm than good? Are there limits to what the reward pool can handle? Should Steemit not use its stake because it's just too large?

Please choose the answer you feel best reflects your thoughts, and feel free to expound on why you chose it.

I think they should be curating. It would actually help STEEM if they did. (11.76%) 2 / 17

The Steemit Account is too big. 33 million-plus SP would destroy the reward pool. (5.88%) 1 / 17

Maybe they should curate. They could try it on the test.net first. See what it does to the reward pool. (5.88%) 1 / 17
