I'm still not very convinced that replying without liking is an indicator of negativity. Maybe in most cases, but definitely not all cases.

I don't use the like feature on the website at all and often comment on artwork saying how nice it is or whatever.

They have all the data to be able to make a relatively simple change like this. They don't want to, likely because it "drives engagement".

In general, whenever people say something is relatively simple, and yet this thing has not happened, it can often be a sign that we are missing some hidden complexities.

Not always, but often.
