I see many positive comments that are not downvoted, so when you downvote someone saying "awesome", I suspect it is because you disagree, not because it was a low value post, which would be the reason why you would downvote. Also, your response was "explain why"; again, I don't see people usually questioning each acclaimation.

For the record I didn't downvote GP, at the time I asked there were only two comments and I was in the mood for learning as this isn't my area.

No, it's pretty clearly downvoted because it contains no elaboration at all, which with one exception all other non-gray posts do.
