> does this apply both to blockchain-style proof of stake and BFT - style proof of stake?

Both styles since both reward the creators of a block and both select the creators of a block through some form of randomness. So in both schemes there is an incentive to bias that randomness in your favour.

Doesn't BFT reward anyone that's validating a block? Meaning that everybody who validates the right block gets the same reward?

Or is there an extra reward for the creator?
